Plan to get to MSU by 1:15 pm to tour the American Indian Hall
With dedicated spaces for study, collaboration and ceremony, the hall is home to MSU’s Department of Native American Studies and the American Indian/Alaska Native Student Success Services office, which serves over 800 Native students and provides important resources like academic advising, tutoring, counseling, advocacy and more.
But the hall is more than an academic and cultural space. It’s a place for Native students to find a home away from home—a place to laugh and share meals, to speak openly and honestly and find support from faculty, students and staff with shared experiences.
The hall also serves as a bridge between American Indian and other cultures on campus. It welcomes visitors from all backgrounds who want to explore its art, find knowledge in its gardens, interact with Indigenous wisdom, and have important conversations about our collective past, present and future
