On Saturday, October 21, MSU alumni returned to campus to greet old friends, enjoy the beautiful weather, and watch the Spartans’ victory over Indiana. The College’s alumni took part in tours on Friday, heard updates from Dean Baker, Dr. Julie Funk, and Dr. Dan Grooms, and gathered for a tailgate on Saturday before the game. Throughout the weekend, our alumni celebrated the reunions of the Class of 1977, Class of 1987, Class of 1997, and Class of 2007.
