Other Points of Interest on Campus  

The remaining two of the nine Michigan State University PWA buildings are the Bowd-Munson designed Livestock Judging Pavillion (1938) and the Soil Science Lab and Tool Shed (1938). Along with college contributions, the WPA built miles of sidewalks and drives, constructed tennis courts, deepened the stadium, developed the track and field, and poured the bridge on Farm Lane. Additional works, such as the Agricultural Engineering murals and the interior fireplace reliefs of Campbell and Yakeley Halls, exemplify the abundance of government-sponsored art on the MSU campus. Unfortunately, many of these buildings are not open to the public.  

Most university buildings are open during business hours but are not open on evenings, weekends or university breaks. If you wish to see an interior view, check opening hours of individual buildings.
