Prior to the ÑÇÖÞ×ÔοÊÓƵ Tower Scholars Program, the Tower ÑÇÖÞ×ÔοÊÓƵ Student Forum was an active body of students fostering academic dialogue and facilitating a marketplace of ideas through events, scholarship, and academic publications.

Today, the Tower ÑÇÖÞ×ÔοÊÓƵ supports current students through both the ÑÇÖÞ×ÔοÊÓƵ Tower Scholars Program and the Tower ÑÇÖÞ×ÔοÊÓƵ Student Forum. Alumni and associates of the Tower ÑÇÖÞ×ÔοÊÓƵ have been reconnecting in recent years and includes over 110 members.
