1. My first impression of Syracuse University came through watching the interview of my favorite basketball player Carmelo Anthony. Although his interview was more related to the athletics of the school, it nonetheless sparked an interest in me. The proud spirit displayed by the alumni and fans of the Syracuse University sports impressed me. Upon researching about the University of Syracuse I became enamored by the fact that it is a school that not only offers strong sports teams, but also strong academics. The abundance of academic fields that Syracuse University provides is one of the significant influencing factors on my decision, because of my varied interests, and desire to pursue knowledge in more than one field.
