Founders' Day bus tours offer variety of stops

By Meredith Mescher

Visitors of MSU will have a chance take a campus bus tour led by Student Alumni Foundation members as part of the Founders' Day festivities on Feb. 11.

“These tours will show people all the changes at this incredible university,” said Beverly Vandenberg, adviser to the Student Alumni Foundation. “When alumni come back to campus, this gives them a real sense of pride.”

Guests can board one of five buses in the circle drive in front of the Wharton Center at 9 a.m. Buses will complete a general campus tour and stop at one of five designated buildings. The separate buses will stop at the Biomedical and Physical Sciences Building, Clara Bell Smith Student-Athlete Academic Center, Kresge Art Museum, MSU Museum, or the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory. The tours will end at 10:30 a.m. at Wharton Center.

There will be no public parking available at the Wharton Center. Public parking for the tours will be available in MSU's Parking Ramp No. 5, located behind the Communication Arts and Sciences Building on Wilson Road.

CATA buses run from the Communication Arts and Sciences Building to the Wharton Center. The 33 bus runs about every 10 minutes between Communication Arts to the Transfer Station next to Parking Ramp No. 1. From there, guests may transfer to either the 30 or 31 bus, which stop at the Wharton Center.

A free shuttle service will be provided from the No. 5 ramp to the Wharton Center beginning at 1:30 p.m.
