Well, I got behind in checking the public notices on the MDAH website, so this is the May public notice a few days late, but you still have a day or two (although I’m almost certain this wasn’t published online on May 6) to get your comments in if you have any.
I’ve taken the liberty of adding links to either MissPres posts for a building or a building’s Fact Sheet on the MDAH Historic Resources Database, which has a lot of good pictures of these buildings, inside and out:

This is a wonderful selection of buildings, and the links were so helpful! I feel like I have already been on a road trip to MSU–which is long overdue in reality!
