It's relatively the same as it always was, but they have always struggled housing underclassmen. We had students staying in the Sheraton 20 years ago. They also want to eventually move all students onto main campus off south.
“On the bright side, if no one travels to see the football team anymore… we can convert the Sheraton to more dorms for kids we overcharge”This is fairly big news, losing the hotel space on the hill.
Syracuse University’s Sheraton Hotel to be converted into 400-bed student dormitory
The decision comes as need for student housing grows on campus, university officials said.www.syracuse.com
"Syracuse, N.Y. — Syracuse University officials on Wednesday announced the Sheraton Hotel will be converted into a nearly 400-bed residence hall.
This decision comes as the need for more student housing grows, university officials said. A three-year housing study showed undergraduate students wanted more options for on-campus housing, they said.
The hotel will close after commencement in 2024. The new dorm is expected to open in the fall that same year."
I was on South when that happened. Always thought it would be cool to spend a semester there as a student. Not sure if they would let a Stumpie in over there, though
It was worth every penny. Not Sorry.
Im glad you had a positive experience. It was mostly a joke.
As a two-plus decade higher ed veteran, I can assure you this thought was uttered. More than once.
Last day is this Sunday
No doubt this is the doing of the Christian Right, striking another blow in the name of "morality."
Well hopefully someone will buy it, clean it up and preserve most of the menu items especially the chicken wings.
We ate there after the ownership change. It wasn't as good. Sad but predictableA CNY seafood stalwart will close after 58 years: ‘This is truly heartbreaking’
The owners fought to keep it open, but say it's no longer possible
That was 15 years ago. Granted I do agree the place had its ups and downs, especially with Covid. I am sad to see it close.

I don’t know where or what south campus is.
Subsidized by our taxes. You’re welcome.Im glad you had a positive experience. It was mostly a joke.
That being said - SUNY all the way
Well it got me a good job so now I can contribute too and pay off my own loans. SUNY all day
I got my MBA from SUNY Buffalo. It was a decent experience. Good price for sure. I concentrated in both Finance and IT and previously had a Finance background. One of my offers was from M&T in their executive IT program. When I asked about their executive Finance program they told me they only hired Ivy League MBAs. I declined the offer but learned first hand how many employers hire and differentiate. I went into IT with an IT company. My undergrad was from a private college. I am happy with both. Each gave me a good education and I had paid off my undergrad loans well before going to UB.
The building is tiny, cramped. The inside really needed a facelift, old wood walls and seating - very dark. We liked going there occasionally for the food. Sad it’s closing. I used to laugh and say that Ruston’s diner and the Clam bar must be related - same decor, old wood all over, decent food but I think Ruston’s might actually be a bit bigger.
If I was in charge...I would consider an Ivy Kid but likely would prefer a kid who isn't so entitled.
