Shaw Hall is known by Spartans for being conveniently located at the heart of campus and across the street from the CATA bus station. The hall is home to The Vista, a newly renovated residential dining facility.
Fun fact: Shaw Hall is named for Robert Sidey Shaw, MSU’s 11th president who led the University through the Great Depression.
