S. I. Newhouse School of Public Communications

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications is a communications school at Syracuse University. It was named for newspaper publisher Samuel I. Newhouse, who donated $15 million to the university for a journalism school. Designed by I.M. Pei, the school was dedicated on August 6, 1964 by President Lyndon B. Johnson. A second building, called Newhouse II, was built in 1974 and dedicated by CBS Television founder William S. Paley. Ground was broken for a third building on November 12, 2005. That building is scheduled to be completed in Fall 2007 and will be dedicated by Supreme Court Justice John Roberts
