Innovation Park Trail and Pond Restoration
Cleanup and restoration work is now underway to address tornado damage to the trail and pond in the wooded area between West and East Paul Dirac Drive, behind the National High Magnetic Laboratory. To ensure the safety of all users, the trail will remain closed during the restoration period. The work is expected to be completed by mid-September, weather permitting.

New FSU ID Cards for COE Joint Faculty
FSU is issuing new ID cards for our FAMU faculty in the College of Engineering. These new cards are designated "COE Joint Faculty" rather than "Courtesy" at FSU. This change reflects our efforts to better recognize and integrate our faculty within the college community, as outlined in Article 4 of the Memorandum of Agreement between FAMU and FSU and the One College goal of the COE Strategic Plan.
To obtain your new ID card, drop by the FSU card office.
