Economic Status
As with many public universities, MSU has a wide range of economic statuses. Some students are paying their way through school solely with loans and grants, while others drive Mercedes and have several houses around the country.
Gay Pride
For being in a conservative state, MSU is surprisingly open to homosexuals. There is a Queer/Straight Alliance group that is supported on campus.
Minority Clubs
The school has four language clubs that work hard to promote knowledge of different cultures on campus. Perhaps one of the most active minority clubs is the American Indian Council, which works with the Native American studies department and is helping to develop a center for Native American studies. The religious groups on campus are almost solely Christian. Also: American Indian Science and Engineering Society (AISES) , Amnesty International, Chabad Jewish Student Group, Chinese Students and Scholars Association, Engineers Without Borders, Global Cultural Club, Indian Student Association, International Conversation Group,International Soccer Club, International Students Inc., Japan Club, Malaysian Student Association,Muslim Student Association, Queer Straight Alliance
Most Common Religions
Christianity is the main religion at MSU, along with a few Jewish and Muslim students
Political Activity
MSU must be one of the most politically inactive colleges in the nation. There are a few groups from all sides of the spectrum that try to get their messages out there, but most students are happy in their apathy. The school leans slightly toward the right.
