The Division of University Advancement supports Florida State University’s mission of teaching, scholarship and public service through our mission of enhancing the university’s leadership, reputation and private financial support in academics, research, service and athletics. Under the leadership of Vice President Dr. Marla Vickers, the division oversees the FSU Alumni Association and the FSU Foundation, working to increase the university’s capacity for private philanthropy and volunteer support. The Alumni Association fosters meaningful connections between alumni and FSU, strengthen the alumni network and support students via networking opportunities, career resources, mentorship programs, travel benefits and more. The Foundation enhances the academic vision and priorities of FSU through its organized fundraising activities and funds management. We are dedicated to engaging our alumni, parents and friends, telling the FSU story and inspiring the hearts and minds of those we serve in support of Florida State University. University Advancement policies may be found on Regulations and Policies. Marla A. Vickers, M.A.’00, Ed.D, CFRE
