The Vires, Artes, Mores donor recognition society takes its name from the Latin words for strength, skill and character found in the university seal and was created to thank those committed individuals and organizations whose support has made a positive and lasting impact on the Florida State University community. Honorees in Vires, Artes, Mores have exhibited gracious dedication to the university’s long-term vision, ambitious initiatives and transformative ideas.
Inclusion in Vires, Artes, Mores begins at $250,000 of cumulative support given through five of the university’s Direct Support Organizations—FSU Foundation, Seminole Boosters, FSU Alumni Association, and The John & Mable Ringling Museum of Art Foundation.
More than just stunning in color and appearance, gemstones are timeless and classic treasures that are passed on from generation to generation. Inspired by this idea, Vires, Artes, Mores honorees are classified by their level of giving through gems—garnet, sapphire, emerald and diamond—and will be remembered for years to come for their commitment to Florida State University.
