Sept. RA Post Week: Got Guests?

Word and pictures by Sarah, Booth First Floor RA

Everyone hears of the classic SU traditions that get shoved down your thought during your freshman orientation. Things like the kissing bench, # 44, and a “KEY play in the game.”  As many of the upperclassmen will tell you, you’ll also make many of your own traditions.  When friends from home and other colleges come to visit, it’s important to share those traditions and not just the fraternity parties and walk down Euclid.

I know this sounds very cliché for an RA to encourage the no drinking thing, but what we see in our every day Syracuse lives is way more fun with someone who has no idea about it. What I suggest… make your own walking tour of the campus.

Show your guests the shopping on Marshall Street, your home and the bookstore. Then you can take them over to sit in Abe Lincoln’s lap, take a Dome stomp and go all Godzilla on Lawrinson hall.

So the next time you have a guest come, make them an honorary Student of SU. Walk them through your favorite traditions.
