The charter of the American College of Paris was signed by our founder, Dr. Lloyd A. DeLamater, on March 27, 1962, thereby realizing DeLamater鈥檚 vision of an American international institution in the heart of the City of Light. Since then, our community has achieved 60 years of studying by the Seine, 60 years of late-night caf茅 discussions, 60 years of study trips across the world, 60 years of lifelong friendships forged in the AMEX Caf茅, and 60 years of priceless memories that continue to inspire global explorers today.听
People are at the heart of how we learn at AUP. That鈥檚 why we decided to make the theme of our 60th anniversary celebrations 鈥淲hat Unites Us?鈥 It鈥檚 a question that community members have been answering both in and beyond the classroom for as long as we鈥檝e existed as an institution. At a time when world events are divisive and unpredictable, we are focusing on what brings people together. With that in mind, AUP鈥檚 President, Celeste M. Schenck, shared the following video message with our community.听
