Syracuse University (SU) is a private American research university. The main campus is located in Syracuse, New York, and shares space with the nearby SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry and the SUNY Upstate Medical University and hospital complex. The University is set on a mostly residential campus, which features an eclectic mix of buildings, ranging from nineteenth-century Romanesque structures to contemporary buildings designed by renowned architects such as I.M. Pei. The center of campus, with its grass quadrangle, landscaped walkways, and outdoor sculptures offers students the amenities of a traditional college experience. At the same time, since the university overlooks downtown Syracuse, students can enjoy the social, cultural, and recreational opportunities of a medium-sized city. The school also owns a Sheraton Hotel and a golf course near campus, as well as properties in New York City, Washington, D.C. and a 30 acre (121,000 m²) conference center in the Adirondack Mountains of Upstate New York.

Globally recognized for its academics — especially in the fields of public affairs, communications,architecture and information studies - the university had a total 2004-2005 enrollment of 18,247 students: 12,268 undergraduates, 5,181 graduates, and 798 law students. Recently, 3 undergraduate students achieved national recognition by their selection as a Rhodes Scholar, Truman Scholar and Goldwater Scholar. Syracuse University is one of only 8 institutions in the country whose students have won all three of these honors in one year.

The university motto is "Suos Cultores Scientia Coronat," which is Latin for "Knowledge crowns those who seek her."

History

(Excerpt from the Syracuse University Campus Plan of 2003)

Syracuse University has its origins in the Genesee Wesleyan Seminary, an institution founded in 1832 by the Genesee Methodist Conference in Lima, New York, south of Rochester. Seven years earlier, central New York had been transformed by the completion of the Erie Canal, and the territory it traversed was proving to be fertile ground for economic, cultural, and educational innovation. Religious movements like Methodism flourished, prompting the creation of new institutions.

The builders of those institutions viewed themselves as inheritors of the republican virtues embodied by Classical Greece and Rome. That belief, refracted through a prism of Yankee pragmatism, manifested itself in the region's physical and intellectual landscapes. The Genesee Seminary was founded by a group of circuit riding Methodist ministers who chose their site because Lima was willing to raise the most money to support the new school. There, in what had only recently been wilderness, the ministers constructed a Greek Revival academy building. The institution they founded was committed to the education of "persons of any race or color, whether male or female." The inaugural student body consisted of four men and one woman.

Like many other fledgling academic institutions in the nineteenth century, Genesee Wesleyan Seminary's ambitions outstripped its resources. Its difficulties were compounded by the next set of technological changes: the railroad that displaced the Erie Canal as the region's economic engine bypassed Lima completely. The Seminary created a companion college – Genesee College – in 1849, but its fortunes did not improve. In 1866, after several hard years, the trustees of the struggling college decided to seek a locale whose economic and transportation advantages could provide a better base of support.

As Genesee College began looking for a new home, the bustling community of Syracuse, ninety miles to the east, was engaged in a search of its own. The rail age had expanded the prosperity brought by the Erie Canal, and the city was booming, but its citizens yearned for something more. "What gives to Oxford and Cambridge, England, to Edinburgh, Scotland, to New Haven, Connecticut, their most illustrious names abroad?" asked one local writer. "Their Universities," he answered. "Syracuse has all the advantages: business, social, and religious – let her add the educational and she adds to her reputation, her desirability." Thus inspired, the people of Syracuse competed for the right to become Genesee College's new home. In 1869, the city was selected and, after a year of political rancor, Genesee College was supplanted by Syracuse University.

George F. Comstock, a member of the new University's Board of Trustees, had offered the school, as part of the negotiations that brought it to Syracuse, fifty acres of farmland on a hillside to the southeast of the city center. In January of 1871, Bishop Jesse Peck, the first chairman of the Board of Trustees, described what was, in effect, the University's first master plan: a scheme for the construction of seven new buildings on Comstock's hillside, each to be dedicated to a different academic discipline. Peck's vision for the new campus was one of stylistic eclecticism; on one occasion, he declared that the new university should "demonstrate the perfect harmony and indissoluble oneness of all that is valuable in the old and the new."

Classes met in a downtown Syracuse commercial block while the first structure built under Peck's plan, the Hall of Languages, was constructed at the summit of University Avenue. Nationally renowned Syracuse architect Horatio Nelson White was the designer of the French Second Empire structure. Upon the building's completion in 1873, the fledgling institution's students and faculty marched from downtown to their new home on the hill.

The Hall of Languages stood as the only manifestation of the University's first campus plan for a long time. The Panic of 1873 interrupted the institution's further development, and the Hall of Languages housed the entire University for fourteen years.

While the Hall of Languages was being built on his old property, George Comstock purchased 200 acres of the Stevens farm to the north of University Place. By 1872, Comstock had deeded Walnut Park, the centerpiece of his new "Highlands" subdivision, to the City, and successfully parceled out residential lots to the local elite. This greensward, extending northward from University Place, was soon bordered on both sides by large and gracious homes. From the beginning, Comstock intended Syracuse University and the Highlands to develop as an integrated whole; a contemporary account described the latter as "a beautiful town...springing up on the hillside and a community of refined and cultivated membership...established near the spot which will soon be the center of a great and beneficent educational institution."

By the end of the 1880's, the University had resumed construction on the south side of University Place. Holden Observatory (1887) was followed by two Romanesque Revival buildings – von Ranke Library (1889), now Tolley Administration Building, and Crouse College (1889). Together with the Hall of Languages, these first buildings formed the basis for the "Old Row," a grouping which, along with its companion Lawn, established one of Syracuse's most enduring images. The emphatically linear organization of these buildings along the brow of the hill follows a tradition of American campus planning which dates to the construction of the "Yale Row" in the 1790's. At Syracuse, the Old Row continued to provide the framework for its growth well into the twentieth century.

Syracuse University offered equal education to women from the beginning. It offered programs in the physical sciences and modern languages, and, in 1873, Syracuse added an architecture program, one of the first in the U.S. and the first program in architecture to be associated with a school of fine arts. In 1874, Syracuse created the nation's first bachelor of fine arts degree and in 1876, the school offered its first post-graduate courses in the College of Arts and Sciences; its first doctoral program was added in 1909. One of the nation's first university schools of journalism (now the Newhouse School of Public Communications) was established at Syracuse in 1934.

Under the stewardship of Chancellor James Day (1894-1922), enrollment increased from 777 to 6422. By the time of his retirement, over 20 buildings were built or purchased and 11 schools and colleges organized under his leadership. The university's rapid growth was due to the Chancellor's close friendship with John Archbold. As president (1896-1911) of The Standard Oil Company of New Jersey (founded 1882), Archbold was largely instrumental in building up that corporation’s business after succeeding John D Rockefeller. In 1886, John D. Archbold became a member of the Board of Trustees of Syracuse University, and later (1893) the Board’s president, a position he held until his death in 1916. Over the course of 30 years (1893-1914) he contributed funds (nearly $6,000,000) for 8 buildings at Syracuse University, including the full cost of the Archbold stadium (opened 1907, demolished 1979), Sims Hall (men's dormitory, 1907), the Archbold gymnasium (1909, nearly destroyed by fire in 1947 but still in use), and the oval athletic field.

Syracuse University was chartered in 1870 as a Methodist-Episcopal institution, but loosened its ties in 1920 with a change to its charter, which now defines the institution as "nonsectarian."

The school's official color, adopted in 1890, is orange. In 1946, Syracuse earned praise from President Harry S. Truman by admitting 9,464 students under the G.I. Bill, tripling enrollment overnight.

Campuses

[edit]

Main Campus

Image:Syracuse U Quad Spring 2005.jpg Also called "North Campus," the Main Campus contains nearly all academic buildings and residence halls. Its centerpiece is "The Quad" which is surrounded by academic buildings, especially those of the College of Arts and Sciences. Most of the roads of the Main Campus are traffic-restricted during weekdays. Some university buildings lie outside of this area, particularly in the urban area north of the campus, around Marshall Street. Approximately 5,000 students live in the sixteen residence halls on the Main Campus. Most residence halls are co-ed by room and all are smoke-free. Some still have gender-specific floors. North campus housing includes singles, open doubles, split (wall-segmented) doubles, and multi-person suites. Residence hall height ranges from three to twenty-one floors.

The North Campus represents a large portion of the University Hill neighborhood. Busses run to the South Campus, buildings located in the periphery, as well as Downtown Syracuse and other locations in the city. OnTrack also provides service to Downtown and the Carousel Center mall from its station near the Carrier Dome. Map

[edit]

South Campus

After World War II, a large undeveloped hill owned by the university was used to house returning veterans in military-style campus housing. During the 1970s this housing was replaced by permanent two-level townhouses for two or three students each, or for graduate family housing. There are also three small residence halls which feature large singles with a kitchen on every floor.

South Campus is also home to the Institute for Sensory Research, Tennity Ice Pavilion, Goldstein Student Center, and the InnComplete Pub. Just north are the headquarters of SU Athletics. Approximately 2,500 students live on the South Campus, which is connected to the main campus by frequent bus service. Map

[edit]

Downtown (and the future)

Image:Syracuse Dunk and Bright.JPG In December 2004 the university announced that it had purchased or leased twelve buildings in Downtown Syracuse. There will be two programs, Communications Design and Advertising Design, from the College of Visual and Performing Arts that will reside permanently in the newly renovated facilities, fittingly called The Warehouse. Both programs were chosen to be located in the downtown area because of their history of working on projects directly with the community. Hundreds of students and faculty have also been affected by the temporary move of the School of Architecture downtown for the $12 million renovation of its campus facility, Slocum Hall. The Syracuse Center of Excellence in Environmental and Energy Systems is scheduled for completion in 2006. The Paul Robeson Performing Arts Company and the Community Folk Art Center will also be located downtown.

On March 31, 2006, the university and the city announced the beginning of an initiative to connect the main campus of the university with the arts and culture areas of downtown Syracuse and the university's new presence at The Warehouse [2]. The Connective Corridor project, supported by a combination of public and private funds, will begin with an international design competition, with the finalists being named sometime in the Fall of 2006.

These projects are part of an effort by Chancellor Cantor to integrate downtown with the university. The separation of the university from downtown has been largely blamed on Interstate 81, which creates a virtual wall between the two.

[edit]

"Lost" Campuses

Triple Cities: Located in Endicott, New York, this former branch campus of Syracuse University, founded in 1946, became SUNY Harpur College in 1950 and later moved across the Susquehanna River to Vestal and became the State University of New York at Binghamton, or Binghamton University.

Utica: Located in Utica, New York and also founded in 1946, UC was founded as a branch campus for returning WWII veterans. This campus remained part of Syracuse University until 1995. Utica College still offers degrees conferred by Syracuse University and continues to have a very similar academic structure. It is officially mentioned in SU's Charter's Article 1, Section 3: "Utica College shall be represented by the President, appointed ex officio, and by the dean of the college, and another representative selected by the college."

Thompson Road: In 1947, Syracuse University acquired a portion of the former US Naval War Plant on Thompson Road in East Syracuse. The L. C. Smith College of Applied Science was relocated to the Thompson Road campus, and the University's relatively short-lived Institute for Industrial Research was also located there. The University sold the property to Carrier Corporation in 1952.

[edit]

Libraries

Image:Syracuse Carnegie Library.jpg Syracuse University's main library is the Ernest S. Bird Library, which opened in 1973. Its seven levels contain 2.3 million books, 11,500 periodicals, 45,000 linear feet (13.71 linear kilometers) of manuscripts, and 3.6 million microforms.

Prior to Bird Library's opening, the Carnegie Library served as the main library. It was opened in 1907, and now contains the mathematics and science libraries, as well as several classrooms. It was funded by a $150,000 matching gift by Andrew Carnegie. It replaced the library in what is now the Tolley Administration Building.

Several other departments also have their own libraries:

  • Architecture Reading Room
  • Geology Library
  • Martin Luther King Library (African American Studies)
  • Physics Library
  • H. Douglas Barclay Law Library
[edit]

Special Collections

Many of the landmarks in the history of recorded communication between people are in the university's collection, from cuneiform tablet and papyrus to several codices dating from the 11th century to the invention of printing. The collection also includes works by Galileo, Luther, Calvin, Voltaire, Ben Jonson, Sir Isaac Newton, Descartes, Sir Francis Bacon, Samuel Johnson, Hobbes, Malthus, Jeremy Bentham and Goethe amongst others. In addition, the collection includes the personal library of Leopold Von Ranke- one of the greatest German historians of the 19th century and often considered the founder of "scientific" history.

The university also has a large audio archive. Holdings total approximately 340,000 recordings in all formats, primarily cylinders, discs and magnetic tapes. Some of the voices to be found include Thomas Edison, Amelia Earhart, Albert Einstein, and Oscar Wilde.

[edit]

Art Collection

The university has a sizeable collection of art. Notable sculptures on campus include Anna Hyatt Huntington's "Diana", Jean Houdon's "George Washington", Emille Antoine Bourdelle's "Herakles", James Earle Fraser's "Lincoln", and Ivan Mestrovic's "Supplicant Persephone".

[edit]

Student life

The school's independent student newspaper is The Daily Orange, which was founded in 1903 and independent since 1971. The D.O. Alumni Association [3] just celebrated the paper's 100th anniversary

The Syracuse University & SUNY-ESF Student Association [4], founded in 1957 represents the undergraduate student body as a student labor union (not a student government). The SA, through the Student Assembly oversees the allocation/designation of the Student Activity Fee (begun 1968/69). The SA-SGA Alumni Organization [5] maintains the history and an organizational timeline on its website.

University Union[6], founded in 1962 is the programming board of Syracuse University. The largest student organization at Syracuse University, UU puts on such events as the yearly Block Party, the Juice Jam Music Festival and Quad Film. It also has the University's only free format radio station WERW1570AM.

SU also has three radio stations: WAER-FM, a NPR affiliate, WERW-AM, a student-run station, and WJPZ-FM 89.1 a top 40 station, as well as the largest and oldest student-run television station in the country founded in 1971, CitrusTV.

Students enjoy a variety of nightlife options, including the eateries and bars of Marshall Street, which borders the campus.

Pan Am Flight 103

Image:Syracuse University Flight 103 Memorial.jpg On December 21, 1988, 35 SU students were among the 270 fatalities in the terrorist bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland. The students were returning from a study-abroad program in Europe. That evening, Syracuse University went on with a basketball game. The university was severely criticized for going on with the game, just hours after the attack. The conduct of university officials in making the decision was also brought to the attention of the NCAA. The day after the bombing, the university's chancellor then, Dr. Melvin Eggers, said on nationwide television that he should have canceled the event. Lingering memories of this public relations disaster undoubtedly influenced the NCAA cancelation of all football games set for the weekend following the September 11, 2001 attacks.

The school later dedicated a memorial to the students killed on Flight 103 in the center of the campus. Every year, during the fall semester, the university holds an event known as "Remembrance Week," to commemorate the students. Every December 21, a service is held in the university's chapel by the university's chaplains at 2:03 p.m. (19:03 UTC), marking the exact moment in 1988 the plane was bombed.

Another Syracuse University link with Pan Am Flight 103 involves UN Commissioner for Namibia, Bernt Carlsson, who was killed in the bombing. Had his travel plans not been changed at short notice, Carlsson would not have been on PA 103, and would have assumed control of the country upon South Africa's signing of the Namibia independence agreement at the UN's headquarters in New York on December 22, 1988. Carlsson's fiancée, Sanya Popovic – now a professor at Barnard College, New York – graduated in 1982 from Syracuse University with a B.A. summa cum laude degree in political science and Russian studies.

[edit]

Athletics

Template:Main Syracuse University's sports teams are officially known as the Orange, although the former (until 2004) names of Orangemen and Orangewomen are still affectionately used. The school's mascot is Otto the Orange. The teams all participate in NCAA Division I in the Big East Conference. The men's basketball, football, and men's lacrosse teams play in the Carrier Dome. Other sports facilities are located at the nearby Manley Field House.

  • Rowing team founded: 1873
  • Baseball team founded: 1872
  • First recorded football game: 1884 vs. Medical College of Syracuse
  • First intercollegiate football game: 1889 vs. University of Rochester
  • First recorded basketball game: 1899 vs. Christian Association of Hamilton (Ontario)
  • Lacrosse team organized: 1917
  • First Women's basketball game: 1898

Archbold Stadium and the Carrier Dome

Image:CarrierDomeInside.jpg Thanks to a $600,000 gift by Syracuse University trustee and Standard Oil President, John D. Archbold, what was publicized as the “Greatest Athletic Arena in America” opened in 1907. Designed to resemble the Roman Coliseum and to never become outdated, Archbold Stadium became a trademark of Syracuse football. The stadium formed a massive oval, 670 feet (204 m) long and 475 feet (145 m) wide. It was 100 feet (30 m) longer and only 22 feet (7 m) thinner than the Carrier Dome and more than 6 million Orange football fans passed through its gates.

From 1907 to 1978, Archbold Stadium was the home of SU football. Archbold opened up with a bang when the Orange defeated Hobart 28-0. It went out in style 71 years later with an improbable victory over second-ranked Navy 20-17. Syracuse posted a record of 265-112-50 at Archbold and it housed many great teams. It was home of the 1915 squad who was invited to play in the prestigious Rose Bowl and outscored its opponents 331 to 16. The 1959 team also called Archbold home en route to SU’s only National Championship. In 1978, SU fans said good-bye forever to the historic stadium. Archbold was demolished to make way for the new on-campus facility, the Carrier Dome, which opened in 1980. (Source: SU Athletics)

Alma Mater

The SU Alma Mater was written by Junius W. Stevens (1895) in 1893. It was first sung under the title "Song of Syracuse" by the University Glee and Banjo Club on March 15, 1893. The song includes three verses, but only the first verse is commonly sung.

According to the 1997-1998 "Syracuse University Student Handbook," author Junius W. Stevens recalled "while I was walking home across the city an idea for the song came to me. I had often noticed how the setting sun lighted up the walls of Crouse College long after dusk had fallen over the city and valley. As I walked through the empty streets, the words of a song took shape in my mind. By the time I reached home, the song was finished."

Where the vale of Onondaga
Meets the eastern sky
Proudly stands our Alma Mater
On her hilltop high.
Flag we love! Orange! Float for aye-
Old Syracuse, o'er thee,
Loyal be thy sons and daughters
To thy memory.

When the evening twilight deepens and the shadows fall,
Linger long the golden sunbeams on the western wall.
Flag we love, Orange,
Float for aye,
Old Syracuse o'er thee!
Loyal be thy sons and daughters
To thy memory <p> When the shades of life shall gather, dark the heart may be,
Still the ray of youth and love shall linger long o'er thee'.
Flag we love, Orange,
Float for aye,
Old Syracuse o'er thee!
Loyal be thy sons and daughters
To thy memory
</blockquote> The university also has a fight song entitled "Down the Field," which is commonly played after SU scores in athletic matches.

Syracuse Trivia

  • In 1929, SU played the first night football game in the east, beating Hobart College 77-0.
  • In 1915, SU became the first East Coast team to garner a Rose Bowl invitation. However, the school had to decline having already played on the West Coast that season.
  • President Lyndon B. Johnson delivered his notable "Gulf of Tonkin" speech at the dedication of the Newhouse Communications Center on August 5, 1964
  • The L.C. Smith College of Engineering was founded in 1896 by trustee Lyman C. Smith- the founder of the Smith-Corona Typewriter Company
  • Syracuse alumnus Arthur Rock was the 1st and only Venture Capitalist ever to be featured on the cover of Time Magazine.
  • The school chose orange as its color in 1890, replacing the unpopular combination of pink and pea green. Blue is often used with the orange as a contrasting color, but is not officially a school color.
  • The Oliver Stone film "Born on the Fourth of July" briefly recreates the Syracuse University student anti-war riots of 1970. The scene was actually filmed in Dallas, Texas. (Tom Cruise, who won a Golden Globe for his performance in the film, was born in Syracuse.)
  • According to a recent article in the Daily OrangeTemplate:Citation needed, designer Tommy Hilfiger is a big Syracuse fan. In the mid-1980s, when Hilfiger started his clothing business, he incorporated orange and Davis' 44 into several of his designs.
  • Syracuse University is one of the five hosts of the IRA Regatta- the oldest collegiate rowing championship in the US. The other schools are Columbia, Cornell, Pennsylvania and the US Naval Academy.
  • The Syracuse rowing team is Dartmouth College's oldest continuously active heavyweight competitor. The two schools race for the Packard Cup.
  • The Syracuse men's lacrosse team has been to 22 straight semifinals of the NCAA men's lacrosse tournament. That impressive streak was finally broken in (2005) with a 16-15 loss to the Massachusetts in the quarterfinals.
  • In collegiate lacrosse, Syracuse and Princeton have accounted for 15 of the past 18 NCAA championships.
  • The number 44 is the most revered in SU athletic history, having been worn by football players Jim Brown, Ernie Davis, and Floyd Little, and basketball players Derrick Coleman and John Wallace. This is why the University's administrative ZIP code is 13244 (the other, 13210, applies to the residence halls, which have regular city addresses), and all on-campus phone numbers have started with "44" since 1987. The football team retired number 44 in 2005; before that it was semi-retired, available only to deserving backs. The men's basketball team retired #44 for Derrick Coleman in 2006.
