Whether you’re familiar with Central New York or are arriving for the first time, there’s plenty for you to explore. From sunny walks across the quad to checking out a show downtown, life at Le Moyne is rooted in connection, opportunity, and discovery. Here’s what it’s really like to live and learn on The Heights (and our own backyard).
Places and moments that make The Heights feel like home.
“Dolphy Day is the event everyone talks about, reminisces about, and gets excited for. It is the annual celebration of summer and nicer days here on the Heights and is celebrated by a day off from classes and being able to hang out and enjoy the entertainment on the quad by the DJ brought in by the school.”
“The Pub is one of the gems here on campus. Events happen all the time there like Open Mic Night or Karaoke, but it’s also a space to relax.”
“Offered regularly in the Dining Center, Kitchen 101 is a popular way for you to find your inner chef!”
“Even if I’m not stressed, I never miss the chance to go to Pet Therapy in the library!”
During your first weeks here, you will explore the entire Le Moyne campus to get a sense of what exactly you will be calling home for the next four years. Even though Le Moyne is a smaller campus, there are so many amazing places within its borders that will quickly become your favorite spots. Whether it takes you a day, a month, or longer, you will fall in love with different spots all around campus.”
When you join our Phamily, you’ll be lucky enough to find yourself in the rich, diverse, busy community of Syracuse, NY. Not sure where to begin exploring, we're here to help!
"Beak and Skiff is the #1 apple orchard in the country, according to a USA Today poll. Up on Apple Hill you can take a wagon ride to pick your own apples, visit the Country Store and Bake Shop for some warm apple cider donuts, pop over to the apple barn to see what they have available for purchase, or try ciders and wines at their tasting room (for the 21 and up crowd of course)."
"Located in downtown Syracuse, Armory Square is filled with shops, restaurants, bars and pubs, and cafés. Also located in Armory Square is the Landmark Theatre, where you can see big shows like Wicked, and the Museum of Science & Technology, which has an IMAX theatre that showcases incredible scientific movies."
"Clark Reservation is an amazing place to take a break and enjoy the seasons. It has beautiful hiking trails woven throughout the woods and around a beautiful glacial lake. In addition to hiking, there are opportunities for fishing and bird-watching."

"Don't just look at events on campus; be sure to check out the local culture as well. There are plenty of great restaurants, music venues, coffee shops and stores in Syracuse if you want to get off campus and explore for a day. Go see a band at the Westcott Theater and get some food at Rise N Shine, or grab a Nutella Latte at Recess Coffee.”
