History Club
The History Club is a registered student organization that brings together MSU students who share a passion for the past and how it shapes the world around us. Through events, discussions, and campus collaborations, the club creates welcoming spaces for historical exploration beyond the classroom.
This year, the Club hosted a wide range of engaging programs, including debate and game nights, the annual Spooky Stories evening in October, and multiple installments of History Behind the Headlines. These sessions featured Dr. Matthew Pauly discussing Russia’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine and Dr. Edward Murphy offering context on recent events in Venezuela. A new event, Love and Heartbreak: Historical Tales of Romance and Tragedy Across Time and Around the World, also drew strong interest. Faculty presenters Drs. Hanshew, Waller, Rajani, Brockey, and Segal offered spirited storytelling and historical expertise that made the event an instant favorite
Whether you’re a history major or just curious, all are welcome to join the club!
