Where leadership and opportunity connect

Your gifts help students create lasting networks and careers

From the moment Anjali Konkipudi stepped onto campus she felt an immediate sense of openness and opportunity that made her confident that MSU was where she belonged.  

“MSU is one of the only schools with a prelaw program. It's also one of the only schools where I could have had the opportunity to major in one thing, minor in a few different things, and still find the organizations that supported me,” Anjali says.   

Now, as a third-year student, she is majoring in political science and pre-law with a dual minor in Law, Justice and Public Policy and Women's and Gender Studies. And she hasn’t stopped there!  

She is involved in seven different student programs and organizations across campus including the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Empowering Women in Law, Big Sister Little Sister MSU, the Black Undergraduate Law Association, the Women’s Leadership Institute and the Student Wellbeing Activator Network. She also found a sisterhood in the multicultural sorority, Theta Alpha Chapter of Sigma Lambda Gamma National Sorority, Incorporated.  

Anjali never thought she would have the opportunity to be involved in so much, and she is grateful to the generosity of fellow Spartans which make it all possible.  

“I know for certain I wouldn’t be in a lot of these organizations without the help of alumni and people from the university,” she says.  

With the support of Spartans on campus and around the world, Anjali continues seizing opportunities to grow, lead and build meaningful connections at MSU to last a lifetime.
