Hi! I’m Maddie, a Junior Marketing Major! I came to MSU not knowing many people, but I have found my community through club sports. MSU is the best school in the world from their student resources to the breath taking campus. I love finding hidden spots on campus to explore. There’s no place like MSU. Go green!

Describe your college experience

I really found my community at Michigan state and there are so many clubs and student organizations that allow everyone to find their place. I had a really easy transition because MSU has so many great resources for freshman to take advantage of. The other students are also very friendly and a few sophomores helped me out my first few weeks

Tip for future students

One thing I wish I knew before starting college is that asking for help is not a sign of weakness and everyone needs help

Favorite class

Econ 201 or 202, or ISS 205. Both of these professors showed me they cared a lot about the material as well as the students. Even though the class size was large the professor put equal effort into building a relationship with me. They truly cared about my well being and encouraged me to grow and step outside my comfort zone

Career goals

I hope to move west and potentially work for a sports team in their marketing department. I also hope to find a job that allows me to travel the world

Ideal way to spend a free night

My ideal night is hanging out with friends or my roommates and going on a nice walk around campus and getting ice cream at the dairy store. Or getting dinner on grand river

High school or secondary school

Mattawan High School

Favorite spot on campus

I love the Breslin center. There is no feeling like being apart of the izzone student section and cheering your heart out among friends and fellow students.
