Purpose

Students spend an estimated 80% of their time at MSU growing outside the classroom. We encourage Spartans to make the most of that time by exploring the various resources – from job opportunities to university events – offered on campus.

Mission Statement

Together, we provide a safe and inclusive environment while holistically enriching and advancing the life of every Spartan.

Values

Care

We strive to support the well-being of all team members and guests, recognizing we are responsible for the impact of our words and behaviors on our diverse communities.

Commitment to Student and Guest Experience

Through listening, engaging and effectively communicating, we provide student and guest experiences that exceed expectations and enhance and uphold a sense of inclusion and belonging.

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging

A sense of belonging is achieved when we celebrate diversity, ensure equity and promote inclusion. We address instances of harm and injustice through accountability and education to guarantee an environment in which healing and growth are deeply valued and supported.

Partnership

With an emphasis on creating and strengthening value, we approach all internal and external partnerships with transparency and clear communication. Together, we focus on goals and outcomes, ready to learn from each other.

Safety

A culture of regulatory safety is embedded in our operational and business practices, allowing us to set boundaries when necessary to protect people. We endeavor to create an environment in which people feel safe socially, physically, psychologically and spiritually and repair harm when harm occurs.

Staff Development

Innovation, flexibility and access to learning and development provide team members at all levels opportunities for career growth. We strive to ensure all team members feel valued and proud to work in our division and serve as leaders.
