The Alliance
On Aug. 6, 2020, MSU and the system executed a memorandum of understanding between the two institutions to which MSU would become the fifth institution to join the system. According to the memorandum, the two institutions had to seek approval from the Texas State Legislature.Â
President of MSU Suzane Shipley said she is happy to see the efforts of the MSU Board of Regents, the system and herself prevail after working on this project for a year and a half. She also is excited to be joining the system of her alma mater; she graduated from Tech with her bachelorâs and masterâs.
