He has received 27 teaching awards at the university, state, and national level, and 31 research awards, including the 2002 Balfour Jeffrey Award for Research Achievement in Humanities and Social Science and the 2001 Guilford Press Award for Pioneering Scholarly Contributions in Clinical/Social/Personality Psychology.

“Hope is the sum of the mental willpower and waypower that you have for your goals.”
C.R. Snyder, Psychology of Hope: You Can Get Here from There

“This simple idea—anchoring hope to a concrete goal—provided a starting point in my model of hope.6 In this venture, I join recent social scientists who suggest that hope involves the perception that one’s goals can be met.”
C.R. Snyder, Psychology of Hope: You Can Get Here from There

“Or, in the intriguing words of existential philosopher Gabriel Marcel, hope is “a piercing through time … a kind of memory of the future.”
