The Société d'Honneur was established by the Board of Trustees to recognize exceptional lifetime generosity on the part of alumni, parents, and friends.
Since the 29 inaugural members were inducted April 4, 1986, the Société has grown to include nearly 150 alumni, parents, and friends. The support of these individuals has strengthened every facet of campus life.
In addition to being listed in the Summary of Giving, members’ names are inscribed on the Société d’Honneur Plaza, located near the southwest corner of Pardee Hall. When inducted, each Société member receives an exact-scale bronze copy of a statue of the Marquis de Lafayette (1881) by Aimé-Jules Dalou (1838–1902). The original from which the recastings were made was presented to the College in 1950 by Allan P. Kirby ’15, a charter member of the Société.
