Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

If you were to go on a tour of SU, the tour guides would deliberately highlight certain facilities on campus and avoid others. They’d show you every nook and cranny of the Schine Student Center, while merely breezing by Archbold Gymnasium. Schine has a lot to offer: the food court is impressive, the bookstore is great for picking up class materials, and there is a box office for buying tickets to any lectures, concerts, or other shows that pass through the SU campus. Also in Schine is the Panasci Lounge on the second floor—perfect for relaxing, sleeping, studying, or just watching the beautiful scenery of SU during a snowfall. Also in the student center is a coffee lounge, a large auditorium where concerts are held, and a computer lab. The buildings on the campus, especially the older ones, can be breathtaking in their architecture. The Crouse building looks like a castle, and the Hall of Languages is a beautiful piece of history. The buildings of SU epitomize how a college campus should look.

Archbold Gymnasium is quite a bit less appealing for the average student. Although the pool is notable in its size, the actual exercise area is small and located on a converted basketball court. There is a wide selection of treadmills and elliptical machines, but the free weights are sprawled about the gym and the circuit-type machines are all typically being used. A one-hour workout can turn into a two-hour affair simply because of the lack of equipment and organization.

Dorms Are Clean, Well-Equpped and Large

Flint Hall, a low-rise 3-story dorm is located adjacent to a dining hall which is very important, especially during the winter months. The shower facilities are large and clean. The laundry area is also safe, well-lit and very clean. Safety is a big priority at Syracuse and the campus is very walkable.

Syracuse University Facilities

The facilities on campus are very nice, and many buildings have just been renovated. The campus is very pretty, with the famous hall of lauguages in the center of the lay out. There is a nice athletic facility and a few libraries to choose from. The quad is beautiful and always a good place to study.

School Events Are Fun!

There are always events going on throughout campus. From Frat parties to concerts to football and basketball games. There are always things going on. There isn't a weekend that goes by without things to do. There are even buses that go to Target and Tops (grocery store). SU provides an array of events.
