About Syracuse University
Syracuse University is a diverse institution of higher education dedicated to faculty excellence and scholarly distinction, attracting and supporting enterprising students and a close interaction and engagement with the world--locally, nationally and globally.
Many visitors to Syracuse remark on the beauty of the University campus. From the venerable Hall of Languages to the 50,000 seat Carrier Dome, Syracuse University's campus comprises a wide variety of distinct architectural styles and artwork. We invite you to see for yourself in the following pages and then come visit.
Each of Syracuse University's 13 schools and colleges play a unique role in shaping the University as a whole and contribute to its reputation as one of the premier institutions of higher learning in the country. Explore all that SU has to offer.
In 1870, the Methodist Episcopal Church, which had established Genesee College in Lima, New York, but was unhappy with its remote location, passes a resolution at its state convention to establish a college in Syracuse. The resolution becomes a reality on March 24, when Syracuse University is chartered. In 1871, the first classes for 41 registered students begin September 4 in rented space in the Myers Block building on Montgomery Street in downtown Syracuse. The curriculum consists of algebra, geometry, Latin, Greek, history, physiology, elocution, and rhetoric. There are no electives. In 1872, Alexander Winchell, a former geologist at the University of Michigan, becomes SU's first chancellor.
Number 44 at Syracuse University is one of the most fabled numbers ever associated with a college football program. Since 1954, nine players have worn the number and three earned All-American honors. Those three--Jim Brown, Ernie Davis and Floyd Little--rank among the finest running backs ever to play the college game.
The Saltine Warrior, an Indian figure named Big Chief Bill Orange, was born in a hoax published in The Syracuse Orange Peel, October 1931. The remains of this 16th century Onondagan chief were supposedly found in the excavations for the new women's gymnasium in 1928. Proposals and attempts at mascots included Egnaro the Troll, a Superman-like figure, and a man in an orange tuxedo. An Orange "with appeal" was introduced in ca. 1980. The Orange has prevailed to this day, as SU fans know well. The warm and wooly interior of The Orange's costume is inhabited sequentially in any one year by from two-to-six students who audition for the honor of entertaining SU fans. Beloved especially by the under-six crowd, the friendly and cheerful Orange has performed well enough in recent years to lead the Orangemen to many successful seasons, and through national television to become a recognizable symbol of SU's sports prowess.
