On Friday, Nov. 18, thousands of Florida State alumni returned to campus in a Seminole State of Mind. As the familiar music of the popular Marching Chiefs filled the air, the exuberant fans joined current students and the hometown crowd along College Avenue for the university’s annual Homecoming Parade. The colorful array of floats combined with the cheers of Florida State’s well-wishers set the tone for a memorable weekend in which new memories were made while old friends looked back on the FSU of days gone by.
