The Lloyd DeLamater
Visiting Professorship signals AUP's initiative and leadership in promoting the
advancement of scholarship through knowledge, tolerance, and
diversity–all key values within the AUP community.
For AUP, the Lloyd DeLamater Visiting Professorship carries
several advantages:
the presence each year of two distinguished
scholars in residence at AUP who will interact with students and
faculty;
the delivery of twelve public lectures open to the
intellectual, political, and corporate leadership of Paris;
the
publication, dissemination and distribution of these lectures throughout the world.

The Annual President’s Conference for the
Advancement of Scholarship, launched in spring 2003, is an integral
part of each graduating classes'
commencement exercises at The American University of Paris.
The conference aims to associate a high
level of scholarship with the honor of receiving a degree from
AUP, and thus serve as a reminder to graduating students that
their intellectual development should continue throughout their
lives.

The AUP Visiting Scholar Working Paper
Series — scholarly workshops in various fields of the social
sciences — provides a meeting ground whereby the AUP Community,
local scholars, intellectuals, and business and government
organizations, can convene with visiting international scholars.
The intent is to stimulate debate over
critical, intellectually-demanding issues, coupled with raising
AUP's visibility in the larger academic international community.
