Historical Note

The Alexia Foundation for World Peace and Cultural Understanding honors the legacy of Alexia Kathryn Tsairis, one of 35 Syracuse University study abroad students killed in the December 21, 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland. The organization was founded in 1991 by Alexia's parents, Peter and Aphrodite Tsairis, and her mentor, David Sutherland. The Alexia Foundation was established with an abiding belief in the responsibility and capability of individuals to shape and advance the cause of peace and is dedicated to providing the means by which to accomplish this goal. In 2021, The Alexia Foundation became part of the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University and was renamed The Alexia. The Alexia presents annual awards of grants and scholarships to both professional and student photojournalists. To date, 170 photojournalists have been recognized by The Alexia with funding totaling over 1.7 million dollars.

Alexia Kathryn Tsairis (1968-1988) was among the 270 victims of the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland on December 21, 1988. She was a junior at Syracuse University's S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications majoring in photojournalism and spent the fall 1988 semester studying abroad in London, England. She was also an accomplished student athlete and played for Syracuse University's women's volleyball team. Her mentor, Professor David Sutherland, recalled she was selected by both the faculty and her peers as "the most talented and promising photographer in the group" of photojournalism students. Alexia had spent two summers working in the Graphic and Photo Departments of the Associated Press.
