A good mix of people I can't stand, people I can tolerate, and people I will be friends with for the rest of my life.

Some are engaging, some are not but yet there are enough to contribute to the classroom environment.

My classmates are all hard-working, fun-loving, driven students whom are all very racially and ethnically diverse.

My classmates are competitive and most of them are nice.

Most students at Syracuse are white middle to upper middle class. Most people walk around in jeans, UGGs and North Face. A little more over half of the student body is out of state and the other half in state, however Syracuse is not a suitcase school, very few commute and almost everyone (probably 98{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c}) stays on campus during the year. Syracuse offers a great community and support system to all their students which they too have upheld. Also, Syracuse students are probably one of the nicest group of people you'll meet. No one is rude, there is very little drama if any at all and everyone is up for meeting and making new friends.

I don't think anyone would feel out of place at Syracuse unless their heart really wasn't into being a student here. There honestly is a place for everyone; I felt out of place when I got here and it took a semester to adjust, but I found my place and that made life so much easier. Students wear EVERYTHING to class. There are kids who are dressed in sweats/pjs, kids in their Greek gear, kids put together in casual but presentable outfits, and I've even had class with a kid who wore a shirt and tie every day. You see everything and no one really cares. No, different students do not really interact. Everyone comments on how diverse the campus is, but at the same time, how segregated it seems. Four tables of students in the dining hall would mostly be made up of four different floors. My experiences living in the dorm were that people hung out a lot with the people on their floor and often ate their meals with the same people they lived with. Most Syracuse students are from New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut. The most prevalent financial background is upper middle class. Students are pretty politically active and seem to be predominantly left winged.

There are so many girls who act dumb and slutty that sometimes it can be sickening. Most students are from New York or the New England area. The campus as a whole is not any one thing-its too big to be unified- there are motivated groups of students and not motivated groups. I'm not christian and no one bothers me about it, I'm not jewish and no body bothers me about it. There are take back the night marches and frat parties, everything is there, but the groups do not overlap much.

there is a wide variety of groups on campus and a good amount of people in each, everyone can find someone there. most students wear sweats or they look really nice. most people are from the northeast, with alot from the nyc area and out near rochester/buffalo.

You will see some fashionistas in tights and uggs -- haha the normal "jap" attire but for the most part you see very casual clothes.
