Honored Founder

Carl F. Eyring

Every year during Homecoming we honor a founder of BYU. This year we are honoring Carl F. Eyring, a former dean of the college of Arts and Sciences at BYU who the Eyring Science Center is named after.

As part of this honor, Carl F. Eyring is the focus of this year's Brimhall Essay Contest. Students submit essays that incorporate the connection between Carl F. Eyring, the Homecoming theme "By Study and by Faith," and their personal experiences. These essays and the founder will be honored at Homecoming Opening Ceremony on October 8th.
