Historical Note

The Syracuse University Honors Program was established in 1963. The demanding program offers honors students an opportunity to pursue their own course of study while allowing them to immerse themselves in curricular enrichment and scholarship offered by the program's seminars, cultural events, and close contact with faculty and other honors students. In 2002, a gift from the family of Trustee Emerita Renée Crown enabled a revision of the program to enhance the honors experience for students from across the University's schools and colleges. Additionally, the program was renamed the Renée Crown University Honors Program, in recognition of Renée Crown and her contributions to the University.
