Several buildings at Syracuse University are named in honor of individuals who were not alumni but made significant contributions to the university through donations, service, or other forms of support. Here are some notable examples:

Shaw Hall

Named after Robert Shaw, the late husband of Mary M. Shaw, who donated $1.5 million toward the building’s construction. Robert Shaw was a businessman involved in the bakery industry in Chicago and later became an official at Union Carbide.

Watson Hall

Named for Thomas J. Watson, the founder of IBM, who received an honorary doctorate from Syracuse University in 1950. He also served as a trustee of the university.

Hendricks Chapel

Funded by a bequest from Francis Hendricks, a former Syracuse mayor and long-time university trustee, in honor of his wife, Eliza Jane Hendricks. The chapel serves as a multi-faith spiritual center on campus.

Crouse College

Named after John R. Crouse, a wealthy Syracuse merchant and banker who donated funds for its construction as a memorial to his late wife. The building was originally intended as a women’s college.

Tolley Administration Building

Originally known as the Von Ranke Library, this building was renamed in honor of William Pearson Tolley, who served as Syracuse University’s chancellor from 1942 to 1969.
