August 11, 2026 - Sam Watson

The Office for Inclusive Excellence and Impact is funding 41 projects this academic year through the Creating Inclusive Excellence Grants program. In total, the office is distributing $253,000 across campus to enhance the learning, living and working environment at Michigan State University.

An expert panel committee reviewed proposals submitted by MSU-affiliated students, staff and faculty for a maximum award of $7,000, a decrease from previous years due to budget reductions. Projects range from ethnic studies to the arts, including place-based storytelling, mental health equity, gender identity, global connection and more.
