The History Club is a registered student organization at MSU that brings together students who share a passion for the past, and how it shapes our present. Through events, discussions, and campus collaborations, the club creates space for historical exploration beyond the classroom.
Last year’s events included everything from trivia nights and movie screenings to spooky storytelling and faculty-led talks on global elections and political history.
Whether you’re a history major or just curious, all are welcome to join the club!
