Hospitality Hall of Honor

Inductees

On September 25, 1996, Conrad N. Hilton, J. Willard Marriott, Vernon Stouffer and Kemmons Wilson became the first honorees inducted into the newly established Hall of Honor at a gala ceremony attended by more than 350 people in the Conrad N. Hilton Ballroom of the Hilton University of Houston. Wilson, then 73, attended the induction ceremony, while Hilton, Marriott and Stouffer were honored posthumously. All of these inductees have left indelible marks on business and in the world, and all are stellar role models for Hilton College students and everyone working in the hospitality industry today.
