Spartanology - The Social Network for MSU Alumni Launches

Help us build momentum! Share the Spartanology vibe. Invite 5 of your friends to join us!

Spartanology aims to pull all your favorite MSU Internet resources together in one vibrant community. We also hope it can be a place where you can link up with other Spartans, where you can share ideas and resources that are important to your love for Michigan State University.

We've found over the years that the best content is end-user created content and the hope is that this space will evolve and grow right along with you.

Join a group. There's the Comm Arts group, The Spartan Networkers, Student Radio, The New Mexico Spartans, the Spartan Journalists... or you can create your own.. Start a discussion in our forum area, and customize your personal page with words, pictures, video and a blog post.

We're at the starting gate, but with your input, we'll make Spartanology one of your favorite places!

Go Green!

Former MSU football players on 2,000 mile bike ride to benefit orphanage

University Relations at MSU produced a fascinating video piece (see link below) following the late April spring football game at Spartan Stadium. John Shinsky was an outstanding football player at MSU in the early 70’s (I watched him play) and an Academic All-American as well. We’ve been friends for several years and I’ve helped him the past 18 months or so with PR on a special project you all may have heard about lately in the media. John and friends have received incredible coverage in newspap… Continue
