For the study, faculty members from the College of William and Mary surveyed more than 1,000 international relations scholars throughout the country. Maxwell's I.R. program ranked ninth nationally. The full FP article about the rankings is available online. 12/19/05

Pan Am 103 Remembrance Memorial

wall of remembranceWhen Pan Am 103 exploded over Lockerbie, Scotland on December 21, 1988, 270 people, including 35 Syracuse University students returning from a semester of study abroad, were killed. The campus was devastated and then Chancellor Melvin Eggers declared, "some of our best and brightest" had been lost.

_______________

Pan Am 103 Remembrance Scholarship

The Remembrance Scholarship, one of the highest awards a Syracuse University student can receive, is given to seniors chosen for distinguished scholarship, citizenship, and service to the community.

In recognizing the achievements of the 35 Scholars, we pay tribute to the Syracuse Univeristy students and all those lost in the terrorist attack on Pan Am Flight 103 on December 21, 1988, over Lockerbie, Scotland.

We express our hope for the future through the Remembrance Scholars.
