I went to the Parent Orientation Dayvat MSU (while my son went off with his peers for a similar experience, plus overnight stay, which he really enjoyed). Before attending, I couldn't see the need for a POP day. Wow, was I surprised and impressed with the presentations and materials! They told us about how the class payments work, how the meal plans work, how the students can and should engage their class advisors, etc. I really like the 'neighborhood' idea so more advice and resources are available to the students, near their residence. Very student-focused! Lunch at the student cafeteria was amazing. My son is going to put on weight! :-) The final Q&A session with three students was superb and really added context to the whole day. Overall, a superb day that certainly exceeded my expectations. Well done MSU! Oh... you want to know about the Kellogg facilities... sure, we were in a large room. Coffee and light breakfast were provided; they were fine. The room temp and facilities were fine. Restrooms were nearby and great. Very happy with the location.
