Emma Duerstock, left, a junior kinesiology major from Nesbit and Maggye McCallie, a geosciences graduate student from Carlisle, Arkansas, take a moment to visit on the porch of the historic YMCA building on the MSU campus. The 107-year-old building underwent a $9.8 million renovation in 2018. The YMCA's front porch is now a popular place for students to gather in the heart of campus.
