| Major strengths of school: Diversity. MSU (at least when I attended `70-`74) has the largest single campus enrollment in the U.S. and ranked 2nd, as I recall, in the world (after the Sorbonne). But it handles its size very well, particularly by using the "living/learning concept" where in some cases freshmen can attend up to 90% of their classes in the same buildings in which they live. It also had the nations largest concentration of Merit Scholars (recipients of the National Merit Scholarship). It is particularly noted for its college of Veterinary Medicine, and has both colleges of Human Medicine (M.D.), and Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.) at a single campus. It is also noted for its school of Hotel, Restaurant and Institutional management. A former employer of mine, Texas Instruments, made a point of recruiting bachelor graduates in Packaging Engineering. While not as famous as Berkely, or Argonne, MSU does have a cyclotron and other sophisticated equipment. | Available
