So glad to tour this college. My son attended this university for one year in 1988. It was too expensive so he transferred to Temple University. He is a Clinical Psychologist, Professor at NYCC and until recently retiring and has his own practice in Manhattan. As a low-income single black mother I’m glad he had the opportunity to attend this college where the majority of students are rich white kids. Thanks again.
As a poor white kid, I graduated from Syracuse. My dad was a lumberman and my mom was a clerk for my working class town in Massachusetts. My parents had no money to help pay tuition. I washed dishes three meals a day 7 days a week on campus all of my undergrad years. In the summer, I worked heavy construction to get enough cash to pay my bills. Not every student is rich and privileged. I’m proof of that myth. BTW, my degree from SU and hard work have made my life a success.
I used to be a cook at Haven dining facility in 1999/2000. We had way better food than what you showed us from the other facility. We also had an amazing head chef that would often treat students and faculty to luxurious dishes she made when working with us. Students could use their "bonus" cards back then to come in for take-out as well. Want breakfast three times a day-no problem, want apple cinnamon waffles with ribeye burger-no problem. The facility was the best with the great support of our directors and faculty at the time. My family owns an Italian restaurant as well in Syracuse.
What a difference. Back in the day, Haven was not coed. It was strictly for women. And Haven Study Lounge was Haven Dining Hall. It was a basic cafeteria at the time, not like today's deluxe restaurant-style dining halls. I enjoyed a few months of eating there during summer sessions.
I got to Syracuse U in 1978. they were undergoing a lot of building renovation at the time. the Hall of Languages was being redone. My first classroom looked like an inner city nightmare, crap furniture and a broken window. i dont recall what building it was. SU has come a long way. I would be remiss if I did not mention the drinking age was 18 in NY state in those days and a 6 pack cost 99 cents. you can probably guess what that lead to. GOOD TIMES. we were very PROACTIVE at that time, and did not wait for the weekends for the kegs to come into brewster hall. By tuesday there was a keg on the floor and the party ensued. I think I learned something when I was there. something. dunno. for any of you grads of that era, recall The Orange Bar . A true dive bar with a local named Bernie who worked at the VA , he spent most evenings there. A great guy and a lot of fun. We could buy three 7 ounce OV beers for a buck. and we did. oh yes. sometimes we would round up a bunch of guys from the floor for the three for a buck beers. We practiced fiscal discipline with the low price and made something of ourselves.

This is my dream college to attend. It's really cool that the dining hall is named after running back Ernie Davis 🧡
