Love and respects to President Thrasher's beautiful and caring First Lady Jean, the entire Thrasher family, and to all those who had the privilege to know him.

My heart aches at the passing of @FloridaState President Emeritus John Thrasher, a titan of Florida politics & great leader of my beloved university. Heaven gained a true public servant, leader, & family man today. To know Pres. Thrasher was to love him. johnthrashertribute.fsu.edu

Turned 55 today. 5 1/2 decades yet I feel I still know so little and have experienced a fraction of what life has to offer. With age comes wisdom that you have so little wisdom.

Celebrating this #AmericanUniversity graduate today! Congratulations to Liam Chapin on today’s graduation with his BA in Audio Production! #2025AUGrad

Our team of faculty, staff, and students returned from Helene deployment just in time to prepare for Milton 😅

FSU extends gratitude to all the dedicated employees across campus for their hard work before, during, and after Hurricane Helene. A big THANK YOU to Emergency Management, @PoliceFSU, @FSUFacilities, @FSUDSA, Seminole Dining, @HousingFSU others for making sure campus was as prepared as possible. Great Job!

Duke just came back to beat UNC after being down 20-0 at half time, winning 21-20 and taking The Victory Bell. My father (Duke BS Engineering ‘62) would have loved this. Shedding some tears over this one.

Dear FSU Family, I’m pleased to share that the Florida State University campus in Tallahassee sustained minimal damage from Hurricane Helene. As a result, we plan to resume classes and normal university operations on Monday, Sept. 30. We understand that some students, faculty, and staff may still be dealing with personal challenges or face difficulties returning to campus, and we will make accommodations and offer support for those in need. Over the weekend, we will continue to provide essential services, including dining, to students who remained on campus throughout the storm. Please visit alerts.fsu.edu for updates on hours of operation and other important information. Although our campus was spared the worst, we extend our deepest sympathies to the surrounding communities and other parts of Florida that were harder hit. We stand ready to support any students impacted by the storm. I would like to extend my deepest thanks to our dedicated Emergency Management team and the various university departments — FSU Police, Environmental Health & Safety, Facilities, Finance & Administration, Student Affairs, University Housing, Seminole Dining, Academic Affairs, Research, Communications, and others — who worked tirelessly to keep our campus safe and informed in the days leading up to and during the storm. Their collaboration with the National Weather Service and local partners, including the City of Tallahassee and Leon County, was crucial in our storm preparations. I’m also grateful for the flexibility of our faculty and staff and the resilience of our students and their families. Together, we weathered this challenge, and I look forward to resuming the important work that makes FSU one of the nation’s top universities. Thank you for your strength and for being a vital part of the FSU family. Go Noles! Sincerely, Richard McCullough President

Dear FSU Family, As Hurricane Helene approaches, I want to emphasize that the safety of every member of our campus community is my top priority. Florida State University officials have been closely monitoring conditions for several days, and we have taken every precaution to prepare for what is expected to be a major storm. Teams across campus have been working diligently to secure our facilities and provide essential services for our students in campus residence halls. Please make sure you have a plan to shelter in place throughout the storm and prepare for potential power outages. Stay informed by regularly refreshing alerts.fsu.edu for the latest updates and instructions. We will navigate this storm together, and our strength as a community will see us through. Take care and stay safe. Sincerely, Richard McCullough President, Florida State University

FSU will open a refuge facility at the Donald L. Tucker Civic Center Thursday, Sept. 26 to current registered students who live off-campus who feel unsafe to remain in their current living situation during Hurricane Helene. The facility will remain open until FSU issues the ALL CLEAR. For more info and updates, visit alerts.fsu.edu.

FSU's Tallahassee campus will close on Wed., Sept. 25, at 7 a.m. ET, until 11 p.m. ET Sunday, Sept. 29, due to Tropical Storm Helene. FSU expects to resume normal business operations at 12 a.m. Monday, Sept. 30. Visit alerts.fsu.edu for information and updates.

I’m thrilled Niche has ranked Florida State University No. 10 among Top Public Universities in America! This achievement reflects our academic excellence, innovative research, vibrant student life, and the dedication of our entire FSU community. fla.st/JAB8TV41

Well that was easy. Any win is a win at this point. Well done, @FSUFootball.

In Orlando for some @FloridaState @FSUCOSSPP fundraising & friendraising today. Am reminded by how lovely #TheBeautifulCity is. It has matured nicely over the years, invested in urbanism wisely, & has interesting buildings and public spaces. Joy to be connecting with ORL Noles.

Good win for the @Seahawks today. Tough, pretty well played context for week 2. Always nice to beat Pats.
