MSUFCU commits $40 million to 'Uncommon Will, Far Better World' campaign

Michigan State University Federal Credit Union announced a commitment of $40 million for the $4 billion "Uncommon Will, Far Better World" campaign on Thursday. The commitment pushes the current total beyond the $2 billion halfway point, according to a press release.

With the $40 million, MSUFCU's total support for MSU has reached $100 million, making it one of the university's "most generous donors." "This renewed commitment builds on that remarkable history and will help us empower the next generation of Spartans while strengthening the communities we serve," President Kevin Guskiewicz said in the Thursday release. The commitment is stated to be focused on community and connection, experiential learning, arts and culture and learning and student success at MSU. Within this, MSUFCU is pledging to support programs like Welcome to State and the Resource Center for Persons with Disabilities.

My Brother Died Because No One Could Stop a Super Speeder. Now We Can.

On Sunday, November 15, families like mine will gather in more than 75 communities nationwide for World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims. In Michigan — where my brother, Paul Sonkin, lost his life— we’ll stand on the steps of the State Capitol in Lansing for the first time. We’ll honor the people we’ve lost. And this year, we’ll bring something that’s been missing for most of my life: a concrete, bipartisan fix for the drivers who frighten us most, and proof that our speeding epidemic is spreading.

It is a full nine-game conference slate in the Big Ten in Week 11. The action gets underway with Friday Night lights from the Rose Bowl as the Big Ten-leading Bruins host the suddenly hot Fighting Illini. Among the other West Coast Big Ten squads, it will be a busy afternoon.

USC and Washington both head to the eastern time zone, where the Trojans face Indiana while the Huskies visit East Lansing to meet Michigan State. Here is our look at this week’s Big Ten action. Illinois Fighting Illini at No. 4 UCLA Bruins Friday, November 13 5:00 PM PT, FOX (Tim Brando, Devin Gardner and Josh Sims) Two of the four longest winning streaks among Power-4 teams will tangle in Pasadena Friday night.

No. 3 Spartans hunt for first Big Ten Tournament trophy Friday

No. 3 Michigan State women's soccer has spent the season preparing for one game: the Big Ten Women's Soccer Tournament championship game. It's a trophy the Spartans have been chasing under head coach Jeff Hosler. They've come closer than ever during his tenure, reaching the championship game twice, but have fallen short both times. "Our group is highly motivated for this opportunity," Hosler said. "We have not brought that trophy home, and it means a lot to this group." MSU plays in the Big Ten Women's Soccer Tournament championship game at 6 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 13 at Folk Field in West Lafayette, Indiana. Last year, MSU lost to Washington in the final. That loss shaped the team's training and focus all season. Now, with only one game remaining, Hosler said the team's attention has become singular. "Our group feels kind of refreshed that we're in this week," Hosler said. "From the start of the season, there's been so much conversation about where we are, what we can be, what we're out here to play for." Hosler said he expects the Spartans to play with more freedom on Friday now that they have reached the final stage of the tournament.

Washington Football Facing Must-Win Game With Trip to Michigan State

Ahead of their first trip to East Lansing as members of the Big Ten, Washington will face some serious pressure to come out on top over the 3-6 Michigan State Spartans. A win for the Huskies doesn't exactly tip the scales on what has been a disappointing season, but suffering their fifth loss of the season to a team with just one win in conference play could prove to have a major impact on the future of the program. Before taking a snap, Jedd Fisch's program entered the season as the No. 17-ranked team in the country in the preseason AP Poll. With College Football Playoff aspirations from those both within and outside the building, those hopes quickly drifted away. After narrowly escaping their first two games, including a 16-14 win over Utah State in Week Two, the Huskies dropped out of the top 25 and haven't been back since. Since beginning conference play, UW has lost four of six, three of which were at home. To fall short of expectations is one thing, but the fashion in which Washington has done it is concerning. The offense, led by second-year starter Demond Williams Jr. and an offensive line that once
