About the project

This website was created for a class project for Journalism 800 at Michigan State University.

We created our publication to examine the resources Michigan State University provides for students of Color. We wanted to look at the programs, initiatives and places students of Color can go for help.

To take our project a step further, we also look at what MSU does for students who feel they are suffering from racial battle fatigue.

In doing so, we hope to shed light on how MSU has work to do to combat this problem.
