How to Help

Michigan State University offers a host of on-campus initiatives that specialize in protecting and preserving the Red Cedar River. Whether it be the effort of a single student in the classroom, student organizations, or the administration, there are many ways to get involved with your environment. As a student, partaking in ISP or ISB courses guide you through some of the most comprehensive forces of nature while also making sure you get your hands dirty. If clubs are more your thing, on-campus groups such as MSU Greenpeace and Be Spartan Greener offer students the opportunity to get involved with their peers. Also, events such as the annual Red Cedar River pick up consolidates the river by removing even the craziest of objects.

If you aren’t a student there are still many ways to help as well! Not only are most of the environmental events open to the public, but merely assuring you are contentious of your actions and dedicating some time to the environment is often enough. Remember, change starts with us!
