Le Moyne College is a private school in Syracuse, NY and a home to approximately 2,800 undergrad and 700 graduate students. Each one of our experiences at this place we call home is different, but there are some things that only the students who attend, or have attended, Le Moyne College would understand. Many of these things are the reasons why we can’t wait to get back! GO ‘PHINS!!! (Disclaimer: I apologize if your picture was used in this article and you find it creepy. I got all of these pictures from Google or my friends’ social media pages. Don’t hate me, love ya xoxo)
