The Student Alumni Foundation, also known at the time as "Stu-Fu," was founded in the fall of 1976 by the MSU Development Fund. During the early 80's Stu-Fu claimed to involve more than 2,000 students each school year. It was composed of a 30 member Steering Committee that includeda president,6 vice presidents, and 24 event coordinators.

The Student Alumni Association was founded by the Senior Class Council in 1979. The main reason for forming this organization was to help fulfill the many student and alumni needs, which were not met by current organizations. Initially six individuals were selected to develop the SAA into a vital student organization at MSU.

In 1986, a revised Constitution marked the introduction of what we currently know as the MSU Student Alumni Foundation. With a new home in the Union, Stu-Fu and SAA, two major student organizations, merged. The programs and events SAA and Stu-Fu sponsored separately in the past, such as Spartan Ambassadors, are now successfully run by SAF.
