Osceola and Renegade
Osceola and Renegade debuted in 1978, and are the most recent of several mascots used by the school. FSU has tried to ensure a dignified depiction of Osceola. The portrayal is supported by leaders of the Seminole Tribe of Florida, but it remains controversial in some quarters.
Florida College
Athletic teams participate in basketball, volleyball, soccer, and cross country. Although originally represented by a pelican, the school's current mascot is the Florida College Falcon. The school has a touring Public Relations band called the Friends, which is a reference to Florida College's original motto, "A Friend to Youth." The school currently participates in the Southern States Athletic Conference of the NAIA.
