Welcome to College Life: East Lansing!
This is an all inclusive site sponsored by Michigan State University and maintained by the Community Liaison, Erin Carter. The website is designed to acclimate MSU students to life in East Lansing. MSU students are members of the East Lansing community regardless of whether they live on campus in the residence halls or off-campus in the neighborhoods. Michigan State is committed to promoting student success both on and off campus. In addition to this website, the Community Liaison also publishes the Off-Campus Living Guide, which includes much of the information on this website in printed format and is distributed to students living off-campus in East Lansing through relationships with key landlords.
