Miami University Student Foundation Logo History

The Miami University Student Foundation (MUSF), founded in 1972, is dedicated to developing and providing scholarships to Miami Students. Our foundation aids the student leader, fulfils campus needs and strengthens the Miami community through high standards of leadership, devotion to the unity of the community and a strong passion and love for Miami.

Framework/Structure

Although the idea for a student foundation is not unique to Miami University, MUSF is different from other student alumni associations/foundations throughout the country. This uniqueness results from the philosophy and goals of the organization which cater to the atmosphere of Miami. However, the essential framework of MUSF and many of its ideas were borrowed from Indiana and Ball State Universities. The generous support of these institutions provided invaluable assistance in this venture. MUSF has taken many shapes since it was founded in 1972. The student foundation is currently comprised of three committees: Student Trust and Alumni Relations Committee (Parent's Weekend Auction & Eye on Alumni), Triathlon Committee (2nd Annual Triathlon), and Traditions Committee (Homecoming House Decorating Contest, Student Slant, Chicago Bus Trips, Senior Week, and MUSF 35th Anniversary). MUSF also coordinates Presidential Hosting during Miami football games.
