Move @ Work

MSU Sustainability and Health4U are teaming up! Get active and learn more about sustainability initiatives at MSU with this weekly walking series. Walks will take place on Thursdays from 12:00p - 12:50p at various locations on campus.

Michigan State University is gearing up for Sustainability Month this October! To celebrate, the Office of Sustainability and Health4U Program are hosting sustainability walks throughout the fall that will showcase the ways in which sustainability is embedded within MSU's campus, curriculum, culture and community. Walks will feature student projects, green buildings, renewable energy, sustainable food and freshwater protection. The kickoff walk will highlight efforts to reduce stormwater runoff and protect the Red Cedar River.

Participants are encouraged to bring their own water bottle and wear comfortable shoes.
