Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

The Hosaeus Health and PE Complex offers students a place to play basketball, tennis, racquetball, take a swim, and lift some weights. The complex is undergoing renovations that are sure to add to its appeal. Students on varsity teams have their own training facilities next door in the Brick Breeden Fieldhouse. MSU’s Renne Library offers every type of studying environment possible. With a gathering area and coffeehouse on the main floor, students working on projects or taking time for a quick review before a test have a place to work. During finals week, however, the designated quiet study areas by the fountain are jam-packed with people cramming for the big exams.

There are also study rooms students can reserve for quizzing one another, or for what often happens: laughing, talking, and not doing much studying. Mediocre is the most accurate way to describe MSU’s buildings and design. The Planning Board is currently working to develop a campus plan to make everything more aesthetically pleasing, but so far, the only piece of evidence they have for their plan is the empty field on campus cleared to build a new chemistry research building. Noisy construction equipment and chopped down trees are not exactly the most beautiful thing to see while walking to class.

Work in Progress

Like most universities, MSU is constantly updating the old building and starting new ones. They do a great job with the new ones, but tend to come up short on the renovations. As an example, the updated gym is great, but still too small to accommodate everyone during busy times.

For the most part the facilities are great= some of the buildings are older but are in good repair. Lecture halls in Reid need some updating especially the seating.

Favorite Things To Do

The Procrastinator Theatre offers cheap student movies from Thursday through Saturday. Other entertainment options include plays, concerts, an indoor swimming pool, and workout facilities. The Brick Breeden Fieldhouse is famous nationwide for bringing in top concerts.

Thursday nights are “Miss Kitty’s Nights” at the Procrastinator where local businesses give away prizes and admission is only $1. The SUB is a great place to go for some cheap entertainment any night: pool, bowling, and foosball are all in one place.
