The Alumni Plaza Project

Montana State University Alumni Association

A place to gather, a place of pride, a place of tradition, and a place to signify our Bobcat Spirit.

The Alumni Association is pleased to introduce the Alumni Plaza, a project to instill pride and provide a focal point for spirit on campus. The vision for the Alumni Plaza is to capture the rich tradition of spirit at MSU and express it in a physical space built around a six-foot high bronze bobcat, where the campus community and visitors alike can gather, connect and celebrate. The Bobcat was selected as MSU's mascot in 1916, for its cunning intelligence, athletic prowess and independent spirit. These attributes are elegantly reflected in 'Spirit,' the bronze bobcat sculpture named for the first bobcat on campus, that is now the plaza's centerpiece.
