Vanderbilt University is recognizing Chancellor Emeritus Nicholas S. Zeppos’ visionary leadership and legacy by naming one of its newest residential colleges in his honor. The Nicholas S. Zeppos College—slated to open in 2020—is under construction at the corner of West End Avenue and 25th Avenue South.
“Nick’s unwavering commitment to Vanderbilt has been key to the university’s elevation as one of America’s leading research and educational institutions,” said Board of Trust Chairman Bruce R. Evans.“I can think of no more fitting way to honor Nick’s dedication to educating the whole student, and to bringing our entire community closer together, than through our residential colleges.His name will be part of the Vanderbilt experience for many decades to come.”
Evans unveiled the university’s plans during a celebratory dinner for Vanderbilt’s eighth chancellor on Nov. 8, 2019. Zeppos, who first came to the university as a faculty member in 1987, served as chancellor from March 1, 2008, through August 15, 2019.
