The MSU community experienced violence at Berkey Hall and the MSU Union the evening of Feb. 13, 2023. Students Arielle Anderson, Brian Fraser and Alexandria Verner were killed, and five other students were critically injured.
The strength of the MSU community and its intrinsic motivation to support and uplift one another demonstrated Spartan resiliency. The act of violence does not define MSU. Rather, that time will be remembered for the response and commitment to caring for each other and MSU’s collective safety and well-being.
MSU is in discussions with the families of the students lost regarding how they want their loved ones memorialized on Spartans Together. More information will be added when ready.
There are several ongoing efforts to memorialize those lost and those affected by the Feb. 13, 2023, tragedy.
