MSU builds on its past to empower the future

It would be cliché to say MSU’s newest academic building is a product of its environment, but it would also be accurate. Case in point, the nucleus of this new facility is provided by a campus landmark, the 73-year-old Shaw Lane Power Plant.

Using engaging text, historical and current photos, we created a fascinating feature story for our audiences.
