Favorite thing about Syracuse: Coming from NYC, I love that Syracuse gives me the opportunity to have the best of both worlds. I can have peace and quiet if I need to wind down or if I am craving commotion and noise I can find that too!

What do you like most about Le Moyne? From the moment I first stepped on campus as a freshman, I knew that Le Moyne was a special place. Coming from a small school in a rural area, I thought adjusting to a college in the city would be challenging. At Le Moyne, I found that the faculty and staff are dedicated to and truly care about the students, I created lasting friendships with peers and roommates, and the welcoming and warm nature of the Le Moyne community made it feel like home.

Favorite hobbies:
Spending time with family, cooking, reading, kayaking, playing volleyball.

Involvement in college?
I was a member of the psychology club and psi chi (psychology national honor society); both were great opportunities to spend time with my peers and professors in settings beyond the classroom. I was also involved in the B.A.S.I.C. group and intramural volleyball on campus, allowing me to meet and interact with people who shared similar interests and passions. I also had the opportunity of working on campus at the Dolphin Den where I got to know and interact with faculty, staff, and students of the Le Moyne community.

Favorite thing about Syracuse:
I love the centrality of the city of Syracuse. No matter your interests or favorite pastimes, Syracuse has something to offer for everyone to enjoy.

What do you like most about Le Moyne? Cura personalis is a Latin term used in Jesuit spirituality that means "care for the entire person". You see examples of this everyday on our campus through our President (Dr. Linda LeMura), the Jesuit community, members of the faculty/staff, our student body, alumni and other departments of the College that go above and beyond on a daily basis for the betterment of the campus community as a whole.

Favorite hobbies: Spending time with the family is something that is very important to me and this typically involves gathering around a large meal. I also enjoy visiting new and different restaurants in the area along with the occasional bakery (or two). I am in the process of improving my cooking skills as I learn from the best cook around - my mother! I am definitely more of a homebody and being with my three-year old golden retriever (Frankie), reading a book, binge watching another show (likely The Office ... again) or watching various sporting events (Go Yankees!) with family and friends.

Involvement in college: Outside of my responsibilities in the classroom, I was able to get involved in several different activities taking place on campus and throughout the community. I was a member of Student Government as one of the class officers, intercollegiate athletics (along with several intramural sports) and was a member of a Service Scholarship program that provided a variety of opportunities to participate in community service projects. All of these experiences greatly contributed to the foundation of my college experience along with the development of great relationships with my classmates and professors.

Favorite thing about Syracuse:
Syracuse is a smaller city, but one that stills offers many of the amenities that a larger city can offer. It has great restaurants, several festivals (Taste of Syracuse, Festa Italiana, etc.) throughout the year, great golf courses, mountains for skiing, shopping centers and so much more. Most importantly - it's home! I was born and raised in the area with the vast majority of my family located in and around the Syracuse area. A home cooked meal is always right around the corner!

What do you like most about Le Moyne? Le Moyne has an incredibly unique sense of community. It is something that I felt immediately upon setting foot on campus as a future 'Phin, even before I became a student here. Full disclosure: Le Moyne was the only college I applied to! I simply knew that Le Moyne was a very distinctive place, and one where I would have a home. We are an incredibly tight-knit campus, and people here truly care about one another. Le Moyne is a relatively small school, which means that the people here - from students, to professors, to staff members - are aware of what is going on around campus, and actually care. You also have the opportunity to get to know absolutely everybody and certainly feel as though you do, but despite that fact, you meet new people all the time! But again, I can't say enough that the LMC community truly cares about each other; Le Moyne has a habit of taking care of their own, which I don't think is easy to find in a college environment, or anywhere, really.

Favorite hobbies: I'm the kind of person that will spend hours upon hours just reading, put my book down, turn my light off, and then turn it back on 20 minutes later and finish the book! Reading and writing are my true passion, which I channeled into my education here at Le Moyne as an English major. I've been an avid equestrian since I was four years old, which my parents believed would be just a phase - not so much, much to their chagrin! I'm a huge runner as well, and love trying new workouts to help keep my mind and body firing at full capacity. I also love spending summer days at my family's lake house, whether I'm working like a dog around the camp, driving the boat or skiing behind it, or sleeping on the dock with my golden retrievers, Banks and Maddux!

Involvement in college? First and probably foremost, I was a member of our Women's soccer team, where I made my best friends. I was also a part of our English club, I played a plethora of intramural sports, and I lived on campus all four of my years as a student here, which allowed me to take advantage of everything Le Moyne has to offer. 

Favorite thing about Syracuse: If I had to pick one (and I know that this is cheating!) it'd have to be the duality of the city! Syracuse is a fantastic small city that is a surprising cultural hub, from Armory Square, to the Landmark Theatre and several other local theaters, to Marshall St. on SU's campus. You hardly need to throw a stone to find a great Mom and Pop restaurant to eat at, a local coffee shop to study at, or a place to entertain yourself that is unique and off the beaten path. Then, just outside the city there are outdoorsy things to do: hiking at Green Lakes, skiing at Greek Peak, Song Mountain, or Labrador Mountain, or running along the canal, among other things. There are just so many gems to be found in Syracuse (including Le Moyne!).

What do you like most about Le Moyne? The people. From the time I first set foot on Le Moyne’s campus in 2012, I paid special attention to, and loved, the feeling of community at the college. I have made great relationships here. The community of Le Moyne is mission driven, in words and action. 

Favorite hobbies: I enjoy photography, writing, and good cinema.

Involvement in college? As a student at Le Moyne I wanted to get the most out of my experience by serving in different capacities and creating community with others around me. I was involved with campus groups and organizations such as B.O.N.D., P.O.W.E.R., Campus Ministry retreats, and Student Government. I also served as a Resident Advisor for both Dablon and Harrison Hall.

Favorite thing about Syracuse: What I enjoy most about Syracuse is that there is something here for everyone. Be it enjoying the great restaurants throughout the city, catching live Jazz at the Marriott, or cycling at Onondaga Lake Park, there is a lot to explore. I've always enjoyed the beauty of the Fall season and the exciting events that the season brings. The city is highly accessible, with the International Airport, Greyhound and Amtrak terminal being only minutes away from campus. The city has its own charm, and there's always something for the seeker.

What do you like most about Le Moyne? The community and those who uphold it. Stepping onto the Heights for the first time during my senior year of High School, I instantly felt welcome. Greeting one another, holding doors and smiling are a sample of the things Dolphins do on campus for other people. Le Moyne fosters a community centered around uplifting others, developing meaningful relationships and celebrating all of our successes.

Favorite hobbies:I love being outdoors. Hiking during all seasons, rock climbing, playing sports and just generally being active.

Involvement in college? During my time on the Heights I was active in many aspects. I was on the Track and Field team all throughout my time at Le Moyne, I was involved in many clubs and was the Vice President of the Chronic Illness Awareness Club, I also worked jobs on campus ranging from Tour Guide in Admissions to Student Laborer for the Physical Plant, I was a Resident Advisor for Foery Hall (RA) and I took part in research through the McDevitt Information Systems Fellowship.

Favorite thing about Syracuse: Hands down the food! Syracuse and Central NY in general has such an amazing and unique food scene. Every meal is covered by so many different restaurants, you are sure to never get tired of the food offered around the College.

What do you like most about Le Moyne? During my first campus visit, I noticed that everyone smiled and greeted one another. This genuine happiness continued throughout my time at Le Moyne, and is due to the true sense of connection, friendship and importance among the students, faculty and staff.

Favorite hobbies:I have been actively involved in several organizations in my town and like giving back to my community. I also enjoy various seasonal activities (kayaking, going to the beach, playing tennis, skiing, ice skating), as well as reading and spending lots of time with my children. When not driving them around town to various activities, my family can be found in the backyard with our five chickens!

Involvement in college? My primary extracurricular activity was playing on the lacrosse team. When I joined, it was the beginning of the intercollegiate program and I’ve really enjoyed watching the program’s tremendous growth and success! I truly believe that getting involved in college life (in any activity you are passionate about) is the best way to enhance your college experience.

Favorite thing about Syracuse?Syracuse is a great college town – it is big enough to offer anything you need (an airport, shopping, dining, businesses, etc.) but small enough that people are friendly, it is affordable (which is helpful for students!) and easily accessible.

What do you like most about Le Moyne? My favorite thing about Le Moyne would have to be the people. The prospective students and current Le Moyne students I have met through my role in Admissions are amazing! It is beyond rewarding to witness how these young people embrace and exhibit our Jesuit values of “being men and women for and with others.” I appreciate that the Dolphin family continues to grow long after you receive your diploma!

Favorite thing to do in Syracuse: Since I am based in the NYC area, I really love coming to Syracuse and catching up with my Le Moyne friends and three of my own children/college students who are all at Le Moyne for graduate and undergraduate studies. My list of favorite things to do is getting longer thanks to all of the great restaurants, activities and great places to visit in upstate New York.

Involvement in college: Club lacrosse, a contributor to The Dolphin newspaper, and a countless number of on-campus events.

What do you like about Le Moyne: Le Moyne has been an important part of my life for several decades and the college core values continues to be enhanced by an unsurpassed educational community of students, faculty, staff and alumni. And because of this community, it’s the perfect place to grow as a person and discover your passions.

Favorite hobbies: I spend most of my hobby time with family activities, being a sports fanatic, and enjoying travel, golf, hiking and biking. All this activity gets one hungry and I enjoy the terrific food and cultural experiences in Syracuse throughout the year!

Involvement in college: Attending a college that supported both my academic interests, as well as my other passions, was important to me and encouraged by my parents. Campus media, internships, career initiating jobs, varsity athletics, and community service all shaped my college experience. Mentors who were faculty, other students, coaches and college staff encouraged my interests and motivated me to broaden my experiences.

Favorite thing about Syracuse: Syracuse has many different personalities including a major metropolitan city for internships and culture; a college town for the excitement and vibrancy of Le Moyne alumni and student involvement; ethnically diverse for food and expanded experiences; as well as sporting activities like hiking, biking, major spectator sports, and skiing. And Le Moyne students have access to it all! One of the most important stops when getting to know Le Moyne is a making a stop on “Tipp Hill” at Coleman’s Irish Pub on the west side of Syracuse.

What do you like about Le Moyne: As a graduate of Le Moyne, I would have to say the people that make up the campus are one of a kind. From the students to the faculty and staff, there's a warm sense of community here. The size creates this opportunity to truly connect with everyone across campus that you will build lifelong relationships with.

Favorite hobbies: Playing sports and staying active, traveling, and spending quality time with family and friends.

Involvement in college: Throughout my 4 years at Le Moyne, I was heavily involved in sports on campus. As a student athlete, a majority of my time was spent practicing and competing with the Le Moyne Men's Basketball Team. I also participated in some intramural sports such as volleyball, basketball, and indoor soccer as well. Aside from sports, I was a member of the CSTEP program and spent time during the summers as a student worker around campus.

Favorite thing about Syracuse: If I had to choose, I would have to say the accessibility to nearly anything just 10-20 minutes away. Whether you want to shop at the Destiny USA mall, have some good dining options across town, or enjoy a variety of activities that the city center has to offer -- are in close proximity to one another.

What do you like about Le Moyne: The ability to exercise every part of your identity. The community on the Heights provided me with a place where I could explore who I was and who I was becoming in every aspect - academically, professionally, and personally - and develop into exactly who I needed to be to make my dreams come true after graduation. The genuine support I got from so many places on campus during that journey was also unmatched. There’s a real duty here to take care of each other and lift up our community, and you definitely won’t find that at every institution.

Favorite hobbies: While I love my quiet days reading a book or binge watching the latest viral Netflix show and never leaving the couch, I’m also always up for exploring and sampling the newest restaurant, going shopping, or to a concert full of electric energy. As long as I’m making good memories with good people, I’m down to try pretty much anything once!

Involvement in college: In my time at Le Moyne, I was an active student in many ways. I worked a variety of on-campus jobs and work-study positions including a tour guide in the Office of Admission, creative service intern in the Athletics Department, and a work-study in the Communications Department. I was a scholarship recipient for Social Media and Marketing at the Keenan Center for Entrepreneurship my senior year, and I sat on e-boards for three clubs as well. During my first two years on the Heights, I was also a member of the Women's Varsity Swimming and Diving team.

Favorite thing about Syracuse: How much there is to do! From the food scene to places like Destiny USA and Erie Boulevard for shopping to concert venues like St. Joseph’s Amphitheater, as well as seasonal events like the New York State Fair, there’s always something to fill your time on what may be an otherwise boring day.
