“Maxwell's Pioneer of Social Psychology?: Whatever happened to Floyd Allport"

Social psychology plays a major role in the study of conflict resolution, and the first graduate social psychology program was established by Floyd Allport in the Maxwell School at Syracuse University. Allport’s career and complicated legacy will be reviewed, aided by unpublished documents culled from the University archive’s Floyd Henry Allport Papers.

Leonard Newman is professor of psychology at Syracuse University as well as associate chair, director of undergraduate studies and director of the Ph.D. program in social psychology.

We’re Turning 100!


To mark our centennial in the fall of 2024, the Maxwell School will hold special events and engagement opportunities to celebrate the many ways—across disciplines and borders—our community ever strives to, as the Oath says, “transmit this city not only not less, but greater, better and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us.”

Throughout the year leading up to the centennial, engagement opportunities will be held for our diverse, highly accomplished community that now boasts more than 38,500 alumni across the globe.
