The Red Cedar Log is the official yearbook of Michigan State University, established in 1889. The award-winning publication is produced and distributed by students on the RCL staff —students with passions rooted in writing, editing, design, photography and business. Every year, their talents and the stories on MSU’s campus culminate in a collection of Spartan history.

You can submit ideas using this form. To get involved at the Red Cedar Log, follow us on social media or email us at rcleic@asmsu.msu.edu!
