Variety of Orange
The majority of the school is composed of Caucasians however Syracuse does alot for minorities with groups such as Orange Bhangra.Syracuse has a multicultural office and has several multicultural organizations such as Wellslink and Dimensions which are both mentoring programs for minority students.

Greek Greek Greek
I do not know alot about the Greek Life on campus besides that there alot of different sororities and frats on campus. Frat parties are pretty hard to get into unless you know a brother or have connections.

Somewhat Strict
Syracuse is not a strict as other colleges. If you are caught drinking at a party and you are underage DPS will make you leave and if you are really hammered they will give you a ride back to you dorm. If you are caught drinking in you dorm you R.A. will write you up then you will have to attend alcohol awareness classes

Slow and Crappy
The computers at SU run very slow especially the ones in the dorms. The computers in the dorms are Dells. One of the good things about the computers at SU is that at the beginning of the school year each student at syracuse gets $20 of free printing.

Prison Like Dorms
The dorms at SU all look like prisons excluding Ernie Davis which is a new dorm and BBB which was recently renovated. The upper floors of Lawrinson are renovated and are very nice. Other dorms however are old and need to be remodeled such as Shaw, Haven, and especially Delplain.

Expensive but Worth It
Off campus housing is pretty pricey. You can choose between living in the apartments on Marshall street, living across from Haven in the new apartment facility Park Point, or UV Village on South campus. There are also houses that you can rent on euclid street. All of these housing places are better than living in the crappy on campus dorms
