Meet Taylor Sutton — an MSU senior from Chesapeake, Virginia. Taylor is a remarkable student of the College of Social Science with a major in Social Work and two minors in Defense Studies and Leadership & Human Behavior and Social Services.
Taylor believes that MSU is an exceptional institution that stands out for its people. The Spartan community comprises passionate and enthusiastic individuals who have made their experiences unforgettable. As a member of the Homecoming Court, they are excited to showcase the diverse opportunities that Spartans can participate in, including the Class of 2024's remarkable success despite the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. This is a testament to MSU's ability to foster student engagement and success amid difficult circumstances.
One of the aspects that they have cherished during their time at MSU is the abundance of discussions around equity. The commitment to social justice and equality is evident in the university's culture and programs. Taylor is incredibly grateful for the people, resources and opportunities that have allowed them to thrive and grow as a student and individual.
The Beal Botanical Gardens is Taylor's number-one destination when finding a peaceful and scenic spot on campus. Located near the Library and the river trail, Taylor sees it as the perfect place to unwind with friends or do some work on a beautiful day.
"Class of 2024, we made it. This wasn't easy for me, and I know this wasn't easy for any of you either. The Class who lost our senior year of high school and our freshman year of college and yet still stand here today as a testament of determination and success. Take the time to congratulate yourself and your peers. I'm proud of you all for the work you've managed to do during your time at Michigan State University. Now, as we prepare to enter into whatever lies ahead, let us continue to be the change we want to see in the world and show everyone that Spartans Will."
