The Miz Factor's Tribute To Cuse: Why Cuse Is The BEST...And What You Missed Out On If Ya Didn't Go...
SO just in case you've been living under a rock, Cuse was recently named the #1 party school. So, in light of all the Syracuse press last week, I have decided to jump on the band wagon with all these other sites with MY little list of why Cuse is sooo great. And yes, while Cuse may have been named the top party school in the country, don't get it twisteddd - with one of the BEST college news papers in the country, (second to Yale), top communications, television, radio, #Newhouse, and dramatic arts programs, as well as being recognized for having THE BEST grad school for public affairs #Maxwell, Cuse is certainly #WorkHardPlayHard. Anyways, from a first person perspective obv, here are my top reasons why Cuse is just #1 over all...
DA SPORTZZ
A lot of sites are saying that our sports-enthused student body is like, the main reason why we won our #1 title, and I mean sure our sportz atmosphere rocks, like it's INSANE and yeah, you've haven't been to a college bball game until you've been to the dome and cheered on your school with 30,000 other people...that's like about as many people that fill a stadium for a Bey and Jay concert...basically a Cuse basketball game IS the Bey and Jay of college basketball. And now that we're in the ACC it's even more aggress. WATCH OUT.
But, we also won the title for a slew other reasons like...
THE SCHOOL SPIRIT
I mean the sports ties in with the school spirit, but like even when we're not cheering on Cuse or watching a game, Cuse people freakin LOVE Cuse. Like, if you're walking down the streets of NYC and you see a girl with a Cuse water bottle...you're immediately best frandz. Cuse alum and fans like reppin Cuse from NYC to LA to DC, Cuse peeps love other Cuse people. You just bleed orange for life.
THE CELEBZ
Like, even random celebs just love reppin Cuse...
Celebs Reppin
Like, a carrier dome vintage tee?! like where did she get that?
Classic Summer Roberts. So trendy.
And then we have our fair share of Celeb alum...
Aaron Sorkin
Vera Fariega
Bob Costas
Dick Clark
Joe Biden
Vanessa Williams
Carmelo...
...Obv most of these people are in the entertainment industry due to Cuse's amaze communications, television, and dramatic arts programs...BUT kudos to Biden for being political. Oh and Carmelo. Yay sports.
THE PEOPLE
Such and eclectic well rounded group of artists, fashion designers, business, television and film, theatre, science, humanities, etc. I got into Syracuse originally for art and design and one of the reasons why I decided to go to Cuse was because of the blend of all the different majors. There are also SO many different types of personalities, a lot of diversity, got some international chicness, and everyone is pretty freaking real. Prob cause we've got a vast population for NJ, NYC, New England, etc, but we also have a slew of Westcoast kids most hailing from LA. I love the blend of Eastcoast-Westcoast kids, which of course makes for great campus fashion...
SYRACUSE SWAG
Don't let the Betsy Johnson alum thang fool you...lulz. There were some pretty trendy peeps at Cuse. If there was a list of fashionable schools in America cause Cuse would DEF make an appearance. I mean, I'd like to think I've always been likee pretty fashionable (ha..), but my style and my individual style grew SO much more at Cuse because I was actually constantly inspired by my peers and just like everyone...
THE CONCERTS
Cuse is known for having some of the MOST amazeee campus concerts. People flock from like whatever schools to Cuse's south campus for Juice Jam every September, which is literally Cuse's mini music festival, and then Mayfest in the spring. But throughout the year also, a lot of artists just come hang. In the past 4 years, all these artists dropped by Cuse...#sup
Passion Pit, Girl TalK, B.o.B, DRAKE, Kid Cudi, Damien Marley, Avicii, Wiz Khalifa, J. Cole, Calvin Harris, Tiesto, Dada Life, Mackelmore, Rehab, Pretty Lights, Nicky Ramero, A$AP Ferg, Zedd, and Kendrick Lamar. Yeah, casual.
THE THEMED PARTIES
FRAT ROW/GREEK LYFE
Our DKE > Your DKE...it's a legit CASTLE tho...
La Delta's Pillars...I'll refrain from making a life was "iller" behind the pillars joke, OH...too late. But like, it was so...
THE WEATHER
Yup, I said it. People who don't or didn't go to cuse are SO annoying because they're always like, yeah I hear Cuse is fun, but didn't it suck cause of the weather? Like didn't it snow ALL the time? Isn't that like SO miz? Literally....
Can I just say that sun rarely shines in Londontown and it is one of the best cities in the world. SO, like don't question our cloudy and yes, often frigid weather. BUT whether there's
A blizzard...
(which is why there's ZBTahiti...lolz)
Or that occasional yet so appreciated sunny day...
WE DON"T GIVE A FOOK. Rain, shine, or stormy weather, doesn't matter, if anything all the crazy weather means we party better. (mehhh a rhyme HA)
CASTLE
Rain...
Or Shine...
Castle Court aka the king of college tailgates.
