It's back-to-school time for many of our schools across our neighborhoods, MSU is no exception. Students have begun moving into their dorms for another year on campus.
"It's emotional," Katie Hogan said.
Thousands of families made their way to campus Wednesday, with many moving students in for their first college semester.
"It's a bittersweet feeling," Hogan said.
Katie Hogan was one parent on campus Wednesday, soaking in the last few hours he has with her son before they head back to their home state of New Jersey.
"There's going to be a lot of new change with one less in the house," she said. "We're going to miss him. But I'm excited for him too. There's so much that the university offers."
This week is also President Guskiewicz's first move-in in East Lansing as well. He shared his excitement for a new year at the university.
"There are so many great things that are happening here," He said. "I keep talking about amplifying the excellence. We have world-class faculty that have chosen to be at Michigan State University and they're ready to help prepare the next generation of leaders."
The next generation is now on campus, leaving parents behind.
"It's a bittersweet feeling, but I'm very excited for him," Hogan said. "It looks like a great university that he picked."
