GOOD MORNING. I’M GILAT MELAMED. THANKS FOR JOINING US FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
AND I’M FAITH CAIN. HERE’S A LOOK AT SOME OF THE STORIES WE’LL BE TALKING ABOUT IN OUR FIRST HALF HOUR.

THE CLOCK IS TICKING– COMMENCEMENT IS JUST 18 DAYS AWAY. WE’LL HAVE EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU WALK DOWN THE AISLE.

THE NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION SAYS THE COMMUNITY GRID IS THE BEST OPTION FOR I-81, BUT WHAT DOES THE UNIVERSITY THINK? REPORTER KENDRA SHEEHAN FOUND OUT.

AND EVERY COLLEGE STUDENT KNOWS THAT FRESHMAN YEAR COMES WITH MANY HIGHS AND LOWS. WE’LL TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT HOW THIS YEAR MET THEIR EXPECTATIONS.

ALL THAT PLUS YOUR WEATHER AND ORANGE SPORTS COMING UP ON THIS EDITION OF MORNINGS ON THE HILL.

OUR TOP STORY THIS HOUR. COMMENCEMENT IS JUST A LITTLE OVER TWO-WEEKS AWAY.AND WHILE YOU’RE SWAMPED FINISHING END OF SEMESTER PROJECTS AND STUDYING FOR FINALS–

YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE MUCH TIME TO THINK ABOUT THE DETAILS OF GRADUATION. MORNINGS ON THE HILL’S ASHTYN HI-RUN JOINS US LIVE WITH EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE THE BIG DAY. GOOD MORNING ASHTYN.

MORNING GUYS. AS YOUR COUNTING THE DAYS TILL GRADUATION IM SURE YOU’VE HEARD THE WORDS COMMENCEMENT AND CONVOCATION FLOATING AROUND. YOU MAY HAVE EVEN DOWNLOADED THE SU COMMENCEMENT APP—

BUT THERE’S A FEW IMPORTANT THINGS THAT YOU NEED TO DO TO MAKE SURE THAT DEGREE. LANDS SAFELY IN YOUR HOT LITTLE HAND. DEPENDING ON YOUR DEGREE PREPARING FOR GRADUATION IS DIFFERENT FOR EVERYONE. BUT THE ONE AND MOST IMPORTANT THING THAT REMAINS CONSTANT.

SO WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CONVOCATION AND COMMENCEMENT?

THIS IS WHERE THE CHANCELLOR WILL CONFER THE DEGREES OF ALL THE GRADUATES.

BOTH CEREMONIES ARE OPTIONAL BUT WITH THE CELEBRATORY NATURE OF GRADUATION. RIFFLE SUGGESTS GOING TO BOTH.

FOR MORE INFORMATION ON DATES. TIMES. AND SCHEDULES. YOU CAN VISIT THE SU COMMENCEMENT WEBITE.

THE COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER THIS YEAR IS MARY DALY. SU GRADUATE OF THE CLASS OF 94. DALY IS PRESIDENT AND C-E-O OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANK OF SAN FRANSICSO. FOR ALL THE GRADAUATING SENIORS AND MASTERS STUDENTS HERE IN OUR NEWS ROOM. FOR ONE LAST TIME. REPORTING LIVE, I’M ASHTYN HIRON FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL.

TIME TO CHECK YOUR WEATHER FOR TODAY.

KYLAN WATSON IS LIVE OUT ON UNIVERSITY AVE TO TELL US WHAT TO EXPECT.

THANKS FAITH AND GILAT. NOW GUYS I DO NOT KNOW ABOUT YOU. BUT, IF YOU ARE LIKE ME YOU PUT YOUR WINTER JACKET AWAY AND TUIRNED THE HEAT DOWN. WELL, TODAY YOU MIGHT NEED TO TAKE THE JACKET OUT OFF THE CLOSET. AND TURNED THE HEAT UP.
TODAY IT’S STARTING OUT AT 43 DEGREES.
LATE IN THE MORNING WHEN YOU MAYBE HEADING FOR A MORNING MEETING, OR CLASS IT WILL BE 43 DEGREES AND CLOUDY
ON YOUR WAY BACK FROM CLASS IT WILL BE 45 DEGREES.
AROUND 3 PM WHEN YOU MAYBE PICKING THE KIDS UP FROM SCHOOL IT WILL BE 48 DEGREES THAT’S YOUR HIGH.
LATE TONIGHT IT WILL BE 44 DEGREES WITH A 10% CHANCE OF RAIN.

SO FAITH AND GILAT PEOPLE NEED TO GRAB THE WINTER JACKET AT LEAST FOR TODAY. AT 1030 I WILL HAVE THE FORECAST FOR MAYFEST AND BLOCKPARTY. I WILL TELL YOU WHY YOU MAY WANT TO BE LIKE RIHANNA AND GRAB YOUR UMBRELLA. BECAUSE ALA GAME OF THRONES THE FORECAST FOR THE NEXT FIVE DAYS WILL BE DARK AND FULL OF TERROR/ RAIN.
I ‘M KYLAN WATSON FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL–BACK TO YOU IN THE STUDIO.
THERE’S CONSTRUCTION HAPPENING ALL ACROSS CAMPUS, BUT STUDENTS WALKING ALONG COMSTOCK AVENUE THIS WEEK MAY HAVE NOTICED ANOTHER NEW PROJECT.
THE ROAD REPAIRS ARE PART OF THE CITY’S BIKE NETWORK PROJECT.
THE PROJECT’S GOAL IS TO IMPROVE BIKE LANES AROUND THE UNIVERSITY HILL AREA.
THE WORK ON COMSTOCK IS BEING DONE BETWEEN WAVERLY AND EUCLID.
CARS CAN STILL DRIVE DOWN COMSTOCK, BUT PARTS OF SOME LANES ARE CLOSED.
SOME SIDEWALK CORNERS WILL ALSO BE CLOSED OFF.
STUDENTS LIVING ON COMSTOCK SHOULD GET USED TO THE SOUND OF DRILLING– THE UNIVERSITY SAYS THE CONSTRUCTION WILL LAST UNTIL THE END OF JULY.
IT’S THE FINAL DAYS OF THE CURRENT STUDENT ASSOCIATION’S TERM.
SOME OF S-A’S BIGGEST INITIATIVES THIS YEAR WERE DISCUSSING SCHINE RENOVATIONS–
HELPING STUDENTS WHO COULDN’T MOVE IN TO THE MARSHALL AT THE START OF THE YEAR–
AND IMPEMENTING MEDICAL AMNESTY– WHICH PROTECTS STUDENTS WHO CALL AMBULANCES FOR SOMEONE WHO’S DRUNK.
OUTGOING S-A PRESIDENT GOO-FRAN SALIH SAYS THE INITIATIVE SHE’S MOST PROUD OF IS GENDER NEUTRAL BATHROOMS IN CROUSE COLLEGE.

“MY ROOMMATES BROUGHT IT UP TO ME, THE FACT THAT THE BATHROOM’S INACCESSIBLE IN THEIR COLLEGE BECAUSE THEY SPEND SO MUCH TIME THERE. THERE’S NOT ONE IN THE BASEMENT WHERE THE PRACTICE ROOMS ARE AND THAT BATHROOM REPRESENTS A LOT MORE THAN JUST HAVING A SPACE FOR SOMEONE TO RELIEVE THEMSELVES. IT’S ACCESSIBLE AND IT’S GENDER NEUTRAL.”
NEXT YEAR’S S-A PRESIDENT WILL BE MACKENZIE MERTIKAS.
SALIH SAYS A BIG FOCUS OF THAT ADMINISTRATION WILL BE INCREASING DIVERSITY, AND MAKING IT EASIER FOR STUDENTS TO GET JOBS ON CAMPUS.
THE FUTURE OF THE DOWNTOWN SYRACUSE PORTION OF INTERSTATE 81 HAS BEEN THE TOPIC OF NUMEROUS NEWS AND OPINION ARTICLES FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS, AND REPRESENTS A CRITICAL DECISION FOR CENTRAL NEW YORK.
THE OPTIONS RANGE FROM REBUILDING THE EXISTING HIGHWAY, TO BUILDING A TUNNEL, TO CREATING A COMMUNITY GRID. BUT ON MONDAY THE NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION ANNOUNCED ITS CHOICE. OUR KENDRA SHEEHAN JOINS US LIVE IN STUDIO WITH SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY’S LATEST ANNOUNCEMENT ON THE TOPIC.
POLITICAL FIGURES, BUSINESSES, AND NEIGHBORHOODS HAVE ALL ENDORSED THEIR RESPECTIVE OPINIONS FOR WHAT LAWMAKERS SHOULD DO ABOUT I-81.AND NOW SU IS JOINING IN ANNOUNCING ITS SUPPORT FOR THE COMMUNITY GRID
LATE LAST WEEK CHANCELLOR KENT SYVERUD EMAILED THE SU CAMPUS AND ANNOUNCED THAT AFTER EVALUATING ALL SOCIAL, ECONOMIC, AND CULTURAL OPTIONS. SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY WOULD SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY GRID OPTION.
CIVIL AND ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING PROFESSOR CHARLES DRISCOLL SAYS THE UNIVERSITY MADE THE RIGHT CHOICE.
“TO ME IT MAKES SENSE THAT THE UNIVERSITY SUPPORTS THE COMMUNITY GRID. WE’RE RIGHT ADJACENT TO ROUTE 81 AND WERE HUGELY IMPACTED BY IT.”
FACULTY AND S-U STUDENTS LIKE BRYAN SANCHEZ THINK THIS DECISION IS A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
“I THINK IT’S VERY IMPORTANT THAT THIS UNIVERSITY FINDS A WAY TO ACTUALLY CONNECT ITSELF WITH THE COMMUNITY EVEN IF IT MEANS PHYSICALLY PUTTING ITSELF IN THE CROSSROADS OF THE WHOLE SYSTEM.”
“I’M HOPING IT WILL IMPROVE THE CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THE UNIVERSITY AND THE COMMUNITY AND PROVIDE GOOD OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE COMMUNITY”
OTHER STUDENTS LIKE JONATHON LAROWE WERE HAPPY THE UNIVERSITY FINALLY TOOK A POSITION.
“I GUESS S-U SAID THEY WANTED TO BE VERY THROUGH. BUT I THINK PEOPLE WERE WONDERING WHAT THEIR RESPONSE WAS AND WHY IT TOOK SO LONG. SO IT’S NOT A SURPRISE MOVE. I THINK THE ONLY SURPRISING THING ABOUT IT WAS WHY IT TOOK SO LONG.”
“I THINK IT’S A GREAT OPINION. I’M HAPPY THEY ENDORSED THE COMMUNITY GRID, I JUST WISH IT HAD COME A LOT SOONER.
AFTER CRITICS HAVE SAID THE CURRENT I81 VIADUCT DIVIDED THE CAMPUS FROM THE CITY AND DECREASED ECONOMIC VALUE TO NEIGHBORHOODS NEAR SU. MANY ARE EXCITED TO BE MOVING FORWARD WITH THIS COMMUNITY GRID OPTION.
REPORTING LIVE IN STUDIO, I’M KENDRA SHEEHAN FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
COMING UP HERE ON MORNINGS ON THE HILL–
SEE HOW SOME S-U STUDENTS HAVE GOTTEN AN EARLY STARY TO THEIR GRADUATION CELEBRATIONS.
ALSO COMING UP.
HOW EARLY IS TOO EARLY FOR A COLLEGE VISIT? OUR ALEXABDRIA BENNETT WILL SIT DOWN WITH SOMEONE WHO HOSTED THESE YOUNG PERSPECTIVE STUDENTS.
STAY WITH US FOR THOSE STORIES AND MUCH MORE HERE ON MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
WE’RE IN THE MIDST OF THE FIRST-EVER STAND AGAINST RACISM WEEK IN SYRACUSE. THE ANNOUNCEMENT WAS MADE YESTERDAY BY MAYOR BEN WALSH AND ONONDAGA COUNTY EXECUTIVE RYAN MCMAHON.
HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE SHOWED THEIR SUPPORT IN YESTERDAY’S WALK AGAINST RACISM. THE MARCH ENDED AT CITY HALL, WHERE WALSH AND MCMAHON WERE WAITING.
THE EVENT WAS HOSTED BY THE Y-W-C-A OF SYRACUSE AND WAS COSPONSORED BY A HANDFUL OF ORGANIZATIONS IN THE AREA. SEVERAL S-U STUDENTS HAD THE CHANCE TO SPEAK AS WELL. STAND AGAINST RACISM WEEK RUNS UNTIL NEXT TUESDAY.

THERE ARE ONLY 18 DAYS LEFT UNTIL GRADUATION AND I’M SURE EVERYONE IS EXCITED TO GRAB THEIR CAPS AND GOWNS.
SENIORS CAN PICK THOSE UP STARTING ON MONDAY, MAY 6TH BUT STUDENT ATHLETES HAD A CHANCE TO PICK UP THEIR GRADUATION ESSENTIALS EARLY DURING THE 2ND ANNUAL STUDENT ATHLETE SENIOR SEND OFF.
ATHLETES WHO ARE FINISHING UP THEIR CAREER ON THE HILL CELEBRATED THEIR ATHLETIC AND ACADEMIC SUCCESS IN THE CARRIER DOME MONDAY NIGHT.
STUDENT SPEAKERS, AND PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL PLAYER BRITNEY SYKES, SPOKE TO GIVE SOME ENCOURAGEMENT BEFORE THE WALK ON THE BIG STAGE ON MAY 12TH.
STUDENT ATHLETES WERE ALSO TREATED TO MENTORING SESSIONS ON HOW TO STAY ACTIVE AND NUTRITIOUS WITHOUT S-U ATHLETICS. LIKE MANY STUDENTS–THE ATHLETES MAY NOT BE SURE WHAT’S NEXT.
THE CEREMONY ENDED WITH HATS THROWN IN THE AIR AND A FINAL GROUP PHOTO, WHICH WILL BE PLACED ON THE WALL IN THE STEVENSON ACADEMIC CENTER.
THE SYRACUSE MEN’S BASKETBALL TEAM HAS RENOVATED ITS PLAYERS LOUNGE.
AND THE UPGRADE HAS A SPECIAL DEDICATION.
THE LOUNGE HAS BEEN RENOVATED IN HONOR OF LONGTIME S-U ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT KELLY SEUBERT. SEUBERT WORKED WITH THE BASKETBALL PROGRAM FOR 13 YEARS BEFORE LOSING HER BATTLE WITH CANCER IN 2017. IN THE LOUNGE IS A PALQUE COMMEMORATING SEUBERT WITH COACH JIM BOEHEIM’S WORDS DECLARING SEUBERT TO BE QUOTE” THE HEART AND SOUL OF OUR BASKETBALL PROGRAM.”
S-U BOARD OF TRUSTEE MEMBER JOYCE HERGENHAN CAME UP WITH THE IDEA TO FIND A WAY TO PERMANENTLY HONOR SEUBERT’S PLACE WITHIN THE PROGRAM.
GOOD MORNING I’M OLIVIA PROIA AND THIS IS YOUR ORANGE BUZZ REPORT–WHAT’S TRENDING HERE ON CAMPUS ON SOCIAL MEDIA. SU’S ANNUAL MAYFEST AND BLOCK PARTY WILL BE HAPPENING FRIDAY. AND THERE’S OF COURSE LOTS OF BUZZ SURROUNDING IT.
SASA TOOK TO TWITTER TO TALK ABOUT SYRACUSE’S BEAUTIFUL WEATHER. SAYING “THE WEATHER FOR FRIDAY IS REALLY GOING TO BE TRASH I CAN’T BELIEVE MOTHER NATURE DOING THIS FOR MY LAST MAYFEST.” WELL OF COURSE FRIDAY IS SUPPOSED TO BE RAINY. IT’S SYRACUSE WHAT WOULD YOU EXPECT. BUT AS KYLAN TOLD US IT WILL ABOUT 60 DEGREES, WHICH MAY BE THE WARMEST DAY WE SEE THIS WEEKEND.
AND THE TWITTER USER MUDSLIDE ASKED “CAN I BRING A FANNY PARK TO MAYFEST SERIOUS REPLIES ONLY.” WELL, ACCORDING TO THE MAYFEST RULES YOU ARE ALLOWED TO BRING SMALL BAGS IN TO WALNUT PARK, BUT THOSE BAGS WILL BE SEARCHED. LARGE BACK PACKS AND PURSES ARE NOT ALLOWED INSIDE.
LATER FRIDAY NIGHT, KHALID WILL BE HEADLINING BLOCK PARTY. AND ELLA TOOK TO TWITTER TO ASK. “IF ANYONE KNOWS/OR IS SELLING 3 KHALID CONCERT TICKETS FOR HIS CONCERT IN SYRACUSE ON FRIDAY PLEASE CONTACT ME.” WELL ELLA I HAVE GOOD NEWS FOR YOU. TICKETS ARE STILL AVAILABLE AT THE SCHINE BOX OFFICE. THEY’RE 20 DOLLARS FOR STUDENTS.
GABBIE TOOK TO TWITTER SAYING “I WAS TALKING ABOUT HOW I REALLY WANT TO GO TO KHALID’S CONCERT IN SYRACUSE AND TICKETS ARE ONLY 50 DOLLARS AND MY NEPHEW IMMEDIATELY RAN INTO HIS ROOM TO BRING ALL OF THE MONEY HE’S BEEN SAVING.” HOW SWEET IS THAT. WELL GABBIE I HOPE YOU AND YOUR NEPHEW GET TO GO. THAT’S YOUR ORANGE BUZZ–I’M OLIVIA PROIA FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY IS ABOUT TO HOST ITS TWENTY-FIRST SHADOW DAY. EACH YEAR IT’S A CHANCE FOR LOCAL FIFTH GRADERS TO VISIT CAMPUS AND GET A TASTE OF WHAT COLLEGE IS LIKE.
OUR ALEXANDRIA BENNETT IS LIVE IN STUDIO THIS MORNING WITH A FIRST YEAR STUDENT THAT IS PARTICIPATING IN SHADOW DAY–AND WHO HAS A SPECIAL CONNECTION TO THE EVENT.
THANKS GILAT AND FAITH. I’M JOINED THIS MORNING BY ASHLIQUA MENIFEE. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR COMING ON TO SHARE YOUR STORY WITH US. SO THIS IS YOUR FIRST YEAR ON CAMPUS CORRECT? AND WHAT ARE YOU STUDYING?
1. YOU’RE GOING TO BE HANGING OUT WITH SOME FIFTH GRADERS FROM SEYMOUR DUAL LANGUAGE ACADEMY TOMORROW, BUT YOU ALSO HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO COME TO THIS CAMPUS WHEN YOU WERE IN FIFTH GRADE. HOW WAS THAT EXPERIENCE?
2. YOU WERE BORN AND RAISED IN SYRACUSE? AS YOU GOT OLDER, HOW DID YOU DECIDE WHAT COLLEGE YOU WERE GOING TO ATTEND?
3. BEING THAT YOU WERE ONCE IN THE SHOES OF THE FIFTH GRADERS THAT WILL BE SPENDING TIME WITH YOU, WHAT DO YOU HOPE THEY TAKE AWAY FROM SHADOW DAY?
4. AS YOUR FIRST YEAR COMES TO A CLOSE, YOU’VE HAD A TASTE OF WHAT COLLEGE IS LIKE. WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO IN CONTINUING THIS EXPERIENCE?
THANKS ONCE AGAIN TO OUR GUEST ASHLIQUA MENIFEE FOR JOINING US THIS MORNING. I’M ALEXANDRIA BENNETT FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
JUST AHEAD ON MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
WITH THE SCHOOL YEAR COMING TO A CLOSE.TAMAR TURNER CHECKS IN WITH FRESHMEN TO SEE IF THEIR FIRST YEAR MATCHED THEIR EXPECTATIONS.WE’LL BE RIGHT BACK.
WELCOME BACK. WITH THE 2018-2019 SCHOOL YEAR WINDING DOWN, WHAT BETTER WAY TO RECAP THAN THROUGH REFLECTION.
BUT NOT JUST ANY REFLECTION.
THAT’S RIGHT, WE WANT TO HEAR FROM OUR FRESHMEN AROUND CAMPUS ON WHETHER THIS FIRST YEAR MET THEIR EXPECTATIONS OR EXCEEDED THEM. OUR TAMAR TURNER JOINS US LIVE IN STUDIO WITH THE STORY.
THANK YOU GUYS. WE’VE ALL BEEN SOMEWHERE FOR THE FIRST TIME AND HAVE HAD TO ADJUST OURSELVES ACCORDINGLY. WHETHER IT IS A NEW CITY, NEW NEIGHBORHOOD OR IN THIS CASE FOR FRESHMEN.A NEW SCHOOL. EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN WAY OF TAKING ON NEW EXPERINCES, BUT WHAT ABOUT THE FRESHMEN HERE AT SYRACUSE?
IMAGINE STEPPING FOOT ONTO SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY’S CAMPUS AS A FRESHMEN WITH THE HOPES OF SPENDING YOUR NEXT 4 YEARS HERE. IT IS ONLY NATURAL TO HAVE A CULMINATION OF EMOTIONS AND EXPECTATIONS
AND WHILE NOTHING IS WRONG WITH SETTING THE BAR HIGH, REACHING THE TOP MAY NOT ALWAYS BE EASY.
AND FOR THOSE OUT THERE WHO MAY NOT KNOW WHERE TO START, YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
BUT AS TIME GOES ON, YOU’LL FIND THAT MAKING THE NECESSARY ADJUSTMENTS WASN’T SO HARD AFTER ALL.
SO NO MATTER WHICH ROUTE YOU CHOOSE TO TAKE WHEN YOU ARRIVE IN SYRACUSE, ALWAYS REMEMBER.
WITH NEW PROJECTS AND INITIATIVES BEING IN PUT PLACE, S-U SAYS IT IS MOVING IN A DIRECTION TO FOCUS MORE ON ITS STUDENTS, BOTH CURRENT AND INCOMING.
REPORTING LIVE IN STUDIO, I’M TAMAR TURNER FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
OUR 10:30 ANCHORS JOIN US KNOW, BUT BEFORE WE GO. BIG NEWS FOR HAMILTON FANS IN SYRACUSE. ONE OF BROADWAY’S MOST POPULAR SHOWS IS COMING TO CENTRAL NEW YORK.
THE TONY AWARD WINNING MUSICAL IS COMING TO SYRACUSE FOR THE 2020-2021 SEASON. NO SPECIFIC DATES NOR LOCATIONS HAVE BEEN ANNOUNCED. THERE’S LIMITED INFORMATION, BUT YOU CAN FIND IT AT BROADWAY IN SYRACUSE DOT COM.
THAT WILL DO IT FOR US THIS MORNING. I’M GILAT MELAMED. THANKS FOR WATCHING, ORANGE NATION!
AND I’M FAITH CAIN. DON’T GO AWAY. MORNINGS ON THE HILL CONTINUES RIGHT AFTER THE BREAK. ABBY, KAYLA AND THE REST OF OUR TEAM WILL BE BACK WITH MUCH MORE.
GOOD MORNING I’M ABIGAIL FRIDMANN. THANKS FOR JOINING US FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
AND I’M KAYLA BURTON. HERE’S A LOOK AT SOME OF THE STORIES WE’LL BE TALKING ABOUT IN OUR SECOND HALF HOUR.
IT’S THE LAST PUSH BEFORE SUMMER BREAK AND FINALS ARE RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER. FIND OUT WHAT STUDENTS AND EXPERTS ARE SAYING ABOUT STRESS.
STUDENTS MAY PLAN TO SHAKE OFF THE STRESS OF FINALS BY ATTENDING MAYFEST THIS WEEKEND. WE HAVE EVENT DETIALS AND WHERE YOU CAN AND CAN’T PARK.
S-U RECENTLY ANNOUNCED A PARTNERSHIP THAT WILL GIVE LAW STUDENTS FROM DIFFERENT SCHOOLS THE OPPORTUNITY TO EARN THEIR DEGREE FASTER.
ALL THAT PLUS YOUR WEATHER AND ORANGE SPORTS COMING UP ON THIS EDITION OF MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
OUR TOP STORY THIS HALF HOUR- IT’S THE LAST FULL WEEK OF CLASSES, I CAN’T BELIEVE IT.
ME NEITHER, AND ONE THING THAT COMES WITH THE END OF THE SEMESTER IS DEADLINES. OUR MICHELLE HOUSTON JOINS US LIVE TO TELL US HOW S-U STUDENTS ARE WORKING TO MEET THEM.
IT’S THAT TIME OF THE YEAR AGAIN.
THAT’S RIGHT THE COURSE EVALUATIONS, END OF THE YEAR PROJECTS AND THE ONE THING WE ALL DREAD. FINALS.
SO WHAT ARE STUDENTS DOING TO PREPARE THEMSELVES? WELL SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY SENIOR DAVID GILSTRAP SAYS HE’S JUST GETTING EVERYTHING OUT OF THE WAY.
SOME STUDENTS GET RIGHT TO IT, WHILE OTHERS TAKE IT ONE DAY AT A TIME.
AND SOME WAIT UNTIL THE VERY LAST MINUTE.
GRADUATE STUDENT BRANDON WILLIAMS SAYS IT CAN BE HARD TO GET THROUGH IT ALL WHEN YOU’RE STRESSED OUT.
SOPHOMORE PAYTON CAMPBELL SAYS ENJOYING THE WEATHER AND DOING SOME YOGA HELPS HER TO RELIEVE STRESS.
GILSTRAP SAYS STUDENTS SHOULD PUT SOME ME-TIME ON THEIR AGENDA.
BIRD LIBRARY IS NOT THE ONLY PLACE THAT GETS PACKED.
LITERALLY ANYWHERE THERE’S A SEAT AND A POWER OUTLET.
SO DEFINITELY TAKE THE TIME TO FIND A NICE PLACE TO STUDY ON CAMPUS.
REPORTING LIVE, I’M MICHELLE HOUSTON FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
AND NOW OUR SAM CARTER IS LIVE IN STUDIO WITH MORE STRESS BUSTER TIPS TO HELP YOU COPE WITH THE PRESSURE.
THANKS MICHELLE.
GOOD MORNING SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY, LIKE IT OR NOT IT’S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN, IT’S.FINALS SEASON. AS MICHELLE TOLD US– FOR A LOT OF STUDENTS THE PROJECTS–AND THE STRESS–ARE PILING UP.
THERE IS THE RUSH TO TRY AND GET EVERYTHING DONE AND STUDY FOR FINALS AND IT CAN ALL BE OVERWHELING.
RECENTLY I HAD THE OPPORTUNITYTO SIT DOWN WITH MEMBERS OF THE OFFICE OF HEALTH PROMOTION TO FIND OUT HOW YOU GUYS CAN BEAT THE STRESS OF FINALS.
THE FIRST THING THEY COVERED WITH ME WAS HOW IMPORTANT TIME MANAGEMENT IS
MENTAL HEALTH AND WELNESS PEER EDUCATOR ALISON DONER SAYS PRIORITIZING WHATS IMPORTANT IS THE KEY TO TIME MANAGEMENT.
THEY SUGGEST GETTING A PLANNER AND WRITING DOWN EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO DOWN. THIS WILL ALLOW YOU TO SEE WHAT YOU NEED TO DO AND SORT IT OUT.
THE NEXT PIECE OF ADVICE THE OFFICE OF HEALTH PROMOTION WANTS TO GET OUT THERE MIGHT SEEM COUNTER INTUITIVE BUT TAKE BREAKS.
HANG OUT WITH YOUR FRIENDS,
PLAY A VIDEO GAME ANYTHING BUT SCHOOL. DONER SAYS THAT PEOPLE WILL BE IN BIRD FOR SIX-HOURS TRYING TO GRIND IT OUT BUT REALLY WHAT THEY ARE DOING IS JUST SPINNING THERE WHEELS NOT GETTING ANYTHING DONE. SO TAKE A BREAK.
THE LAST AND MOST IMPORTANT THING I PICKED UP WAS PRETTY SIMPLE. GET SOME SLEEP.
DONER SAYS A LOT OF TIMES STUDENTS WILL TRY AND CRAM THE NIGHT BEFORE AND THIS CAN HAVE NEGITIVE AFFECTS ON MEMORIES AND THUSLY TEST PERFORMANCE. SO TRY AND GET AT LEAST 7 HOURS OF SLEEP.
THERE ARE ALSO GOING TO BE A GREAT STRESS BUSTING SESSION PUT ON BY ORANGE AFTER DARK ON MAY FIFTH IN THE SCHINE DINING CENTER. THERE ARE GOING TO BE GAME, MASK MAKINGS,
A FEW THERAPY DOGS THAT’S GOING TO START AT TEN P-M SO YOU SHOULD TRY AND CHECK THAT OUT IF YOU’RE FEELING THE STRAIN.
REPORTING LIVE, I’M SAM CARTER FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
TIME FOR ANOTHER CHECK ON YOUR WEATHER FOR TODAY.
KYLAN WATSON IS LIVE OUT ON UNIVERSITY AVE TO SHOW US WHAT TO EXPECT.
OK GUYS, ITS WEDNESDAY,
THE WEEK IS WINDING DOWN.
FOR PEOPLE IN SYRACUSE THIS WEEKEND THEY ARE GETTING READY FOR BLOCK PARTY AND MAYFEST.
THE WEATHER LOOKS A LITTLE WET FOR THAT.
TOMORROW ITS GOING TO BE 66 DEGREES FOR THE HIGH, AND A LOW OF 48 DEGREES, MOSTLY CLOUDY WITH A 10% CHANCE OF RAIN
FOR MAYFEST AND BLOCK PARTY, THERE WILL BE AN 80% CHANCE OF RAIN, A HIGH OF 56 DEGREES.
WE GET A BREAK FROM THE RAIN ON SATURDAY A HIGH OF 49 DEGREES AND A LOW OF 37 DEGREES.
BUT, KEEP THOSE UMBRELLAS AND HOODIES HANDY, THERE WILL BE A 40% CHANCE OF RAIN AND A HIGH OF 50 DEGREES AND A LOW OF 38 DEGREES.
GRAB THE UMBRELLAS AND HOODIES.
BECAUSE WHILE YOU MAY BE GOING,
TO HEAR SOME OF KHALID’S HITS LIKE YOUNG, DUMB, AND BROKE AND LOVE LIES.
BUT WHAT YOU MAY BE SINGING BEFORE AND AFTER THE CONCERTS ARE HITS LIKE:
MR SUN MR. GOLDEN SUN PLEASE SHINE DOWN ON ME, AND RAIN RAIN GO AWAY.
LIKE THE GREAT PHILOSOPHER TIGGER ONCE SAID TTFN, FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL I’M KYLAN WATSON BACK TO YOU GUYS IN THE STUDIO.
THANKS KYLAN, IT SOUNDS LIKE ALL THAT RAINY WEATHER MIGHT DAMPER SOME OF OUR WEEKEND PLANS?
FOR SURE- IF YOU PLAN ON GOING TO MAYFEST THIS WEEKEND YOU MIGHT WANT TO BRING OUT THOSE RAIN BOOTS. BUT THERE ARE A COUPLE OTHER THINGS YOU NEED TO BRING.
IF YOU PLAN TO COME TO MAYFEST YOU GOING TO NEED TICKETS. UNDERGRADS YOU CAN GET IN WITH A STUDENT I-D, GRADUATE STUDENTS NEED TO PURCHASE A TICKET BEFORE THE EVENT. ALSO IF YOU PLAN ON SPENDING TIME IN THE 21-AND-OVER SECTION YOU’VE GOT TO GET ONE OF THOSE FAMOUS DRINK BRACELETS TO BE ALLOWED TO PARTAKE IN THOSE “OF AGE” ACTIVITIES. AND IF YOU DO PLAN ON DRINKING THIS WEEKEND.
FOR MORE INFORMATION ON RULES REGARDING MAYFEST CHECK OUT THE UNIVERSITY UNION WEBSITE.
WITH ALL THESE ACTIVITIES GOING ON.STUDENTS ARE PROBABLY WONDERING WHERE THEY CAN PARK ON CAMPUS.
ABSOLUTELY. THERE WILL BE SOME RESTRICTIONS THAT STUDENTS NEED TO BE AWARE OF.
WALNUT PLACE AND WALNUT AVENUE WILL BE CLOSED TO ALL PARKING ON FRIDAY.
THERE WILL BE OPEN SPOTS AT THE HARRISON AND UNIVERSITY LOT.
ADDITIONALLY IF YOU SEE A “NO PARKING SIGN” S-U IS ASKING ALL DRIVERS TO OBEY THOSE REQUESTS.
COMING UP HERE ON MORNINGS ON THE HILL–
FIND OUT WHY THE OFFICE OF HEALTH SERVICES IS URGING STUDENTS TO REMAIN CALM AFTER ANNOUCING THAT ONE OF OUR STUDENTS IS BEING TREATED FOR TUBERCULOSIS.
ALSO COMING UP.YOU PROBABLY ALREADY HEARD WHO THE NEXT S-A PRESIDENT WILL BE BUT IF YOU DIDN’T SHE’LL BE JOINING US TODAY TO DISCUSS HER PLANS FOR THE UPCOMING SCHOOL YEAR.
STAY WITH US FOR THOSE STORIES AND MUCH MORE HERE ON MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
THE SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF LAW HAS ENTERED AN AGREEMENT
WITH THREE HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES.
THE THREE SCHOOLS ARE MOREHOUSE COLLEGE, CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY, AND SPELMAN COLLEGE.
THE “THREE PLUS THREE” PROGRAM WILL ALLOW STUDENTS AT THOSE SCHOOLS TO FINISH THEIR JURIS DOCTORATE DEGREES ON AN ACCELERATED TRACK AT S-U LAW.
STUDENTS WE TALKED WITH ARE EXCITED ABOUT THE PROJECT.
WILLIAMSON SAYS HE IS EXCITED TO WELCOME THE NEW STUDENTS THAT WILL COME TO SU LAW BECAUSE OF THIS NEW AGREEMENT.
A RECENT EMAIL HAS BEEN SENT OUT BY THE UNIVERSITY TAKING PRECAUTION TO A POSSIBLE SPREAD OF A DISEASE.
A STUDENT OF THE UNIVERSITY IS CURRENTLY BEING TREATED FOR THIS DIAGNOSIS AND SU WANTS TO BE SURE OTHER STUDENTS ARE AWARE.
THIS EMAIL IS TELLING STUDENTS TO BE WATCHFUL FOR TUBURCULOSIS AFTER A STUDENT IS BEING TREATED FOR IT.
EVEN THOUGH DOCTORS SAY THIS ISN’T SOMETHING TO BE TOO NERVOUS ABOUT- SU ENCOURAGES STUDENTS TO VISIT THE UNIVERSITY HEALTH CENTER TO GET CHECKED- IT’S ALWAYS GOOD TO MAKE SURE YOU ARE AVOIDING ANY TYPE OF SICKNESS.
A RECENT DISORDER THAT MAY BE AFFECTING YOUR LOVED ONES IS BEING INVESTIGATED BY DOCTORS.
DOCTORS ARE LOOKING AT A POTENTIALLY NEW EATING DISORDER THAT COULD BE MORE COMMON THAN PEOPLE THINK.
THIS DISORDER IS CALLED ORTHOREXIA- MEANING AN OBSESSION WITH HEALTHY EATING.
WORKING OUT AND EATING HEALTHY IS TYPICALLY A GOOD THING BUT TOO MUCH OF ANYTHING CAN BE PROBLEMATIC. ORTHOREXIA IS MORE PRONE TOWARD ATHLETES AND EVEN THOUGH IT IS NOT OFFICIALLY RECOGNIZED BY THE DIAGNOSTIC AND STATISTIC MANUAL OF MENTAL DISORDERS – DOCTORS ARE SAYING IT IS ON THE RISE. SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY NUTRITIONIST JESSICA REDMOND SAYS JUST LIKE ANY OTHER EATING DISORDER – YOU DON’T WANT TO TAKE IT LIGHTLY.
REDMOND SAYS ITS ALWAYS GOOD TO EAT HEALTHY – AND THIS INCLUDES ADDING CARBS TO YOUR DIET AS WELL.
WELCOME BACK TO MORNINGS ON THE HILL, I’M LANDON WEXLER. WE’RE JOINED THIS MORNING BY STUDENT ASSCOATION PRESIDENT ELECT MACKENZIE MERTIKAS.
MACKENZIE, YOU AND SAMEEHA SAIEED HAVE WON THE STUDENT ASSOCIATION PRESIDENTIAL RACE
QUESTIONS:
WHAT’S THE PLAN AS SOON AS YOU LADIES TAKE OFFICE?
WHY DID YOU WANT TO TAKE ON THIS RESPONSIBILITY?
YOU’VE BEEN HEAVILY INVOLVED IN S-A FOR A WHILE AND SERVED AS CHIEF OF STAFF UNDER GHUFRAN AND KYLE — WHAT WERE SOME THINGS YOU LEARNED FROM THEM?
YOU’RE A DOUBLE MAJOR — PUBLIC RELATIONS IN NEWHOUSE AND POLITICAL SCIENCE IN NEWHOUSE AND VERY INVOLVED WITH RELAY FOR LIFE — HOW ARE PLANNING ON MANAGING LIFE WITH ALL THIS RESPONSIBILITY
HOW ARE YOU FEELING ABOUT THE NOTERIETY YOU’LL HAVE ON CAMPUS?
THANKS AGAIN TO OUR GUEST MACKENZIE FOR JOINING US THIS MORNING. I’M LANDON WEXLER FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
GOOD MORNING, I’M DANIEL BOOTH WITH YOUR MORNINGS ON THE HILL ORANGE SPORTS UPDATE. THE LACROSSE REGULAR SEASON IS OVER, AND THAT MEANS IT’S TIME FOR THE PLAYOFFS. SYRACUSE’S MEN’S AND WOMEN’S TEAMS BATTLED ALL SEASON TO GET TO THIS POINT, AND NOW THEY’RE READY, TO PLAY FOR ALL THE MARBLES.
IN THE FIRST ROUND OF THE A-C-C TOURNAMENT, THE NUMBER-SEVEN RANKED MEN’S TEAM IS SET TO TAKE ON THE NORTH CAROLINA TAR HEELS. SYRACUSE HAS BEEN CLIMBING THE NATIONAL POLLS ALL SEASON, AND THEIR IMPRESSIVE RESUME IS WILL BE PUT TO THE TEST DOWN IN CHAPEL HILL, TOMORROW NIGHT AT 6:00.
AS FOR THE WOMEN, THEY’LL PUT THEIR NUMBER-FOUR NATIONAL RANKING ON THE LINE AGAUNST VIRGINIA. THIS SEASON, 7 OF THE 14 WINS FOR THE ORANGE HAVE COME AGAINST RANKED OPPONENTS; INCLUDING VIRGINIA, WHO THEY BEAT BY FIVE BACK IN EARLY MARCH. THE GAME IS SCHEDULED FOR TODAY AT 2-P-M, IN CHESTNUT HILL, MASSACHUSETTS.
SPRING HAS SPRING, AND THAT MEANS STUDENTS HAVE THE CHANCE GET OUT OF THEIR STUFFY DORM-ROOMS, AND ENJOY THE NICE WEATHER. THERE ARE PLENTY OF DOG OWNERS WHO USE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO WALK THEIR DOGS. WITH ALL LIFE THROWS AT YOU, IT ISN’T ALWAYS EASY TO FIND TIME TO EXERCISE, BUT WHAT IF I TOLD YOU TAKING CARE OF YOUR PET IS A GREAT WAY TO LIVE A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE.
“I USED TO BE REALLY INTO WORKING OUT, BUT COLLEGE OBVIOUSLY, IT’S KINDA HARD WITH THE SCHEDULE.”
BEING A DOG OWNER IS A BIG RESPONSIBILY. AND THAT RESPONSIBILTY CAN LEAD PEOPLE TO LIVING HEALTHIER LIVES.
“I HAVE A HUSKY AND SHE IS INCREDIBLY ENERGETIC; NEVER TIRED. AND I JUST, IN ORDER TO HAVE PEACE AND QUIET IN THE HOUSE, AND TO MAKE HER HAPPY, I HAVE TO TAKE HER OUT, LIKE, TWO, THREE TIMES A DAY.”
GOING ON WALKS AND PLAYING IN PARKS, ARE GREAT WAYS FOR DOGS, AND THEIR OWNERS TO EXERCISE ON A DAILY BASIS.
“IF YOU DON’T WALK WITH THIS DOG, THEN THEY’RE GONNA BE LIKE FEELING BAD, LIKE STAYING INSIDE, SO I HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF HER, AND IT KIND OF HELPS ME TAKE CARE OF MYSELF.”
BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHER DOG OWNERS CAN MAKE TAKING CARE OF A DOG MORE FUN.
“I GO TO THE WOMEN’S BUILDING, AND THERE’S A BUNCH OF OTHER DOG PARENTS THERE, AND IT’S A WAY TO MAKE NEW FRIENDS, AND HAVE OUR DOGS PLAY.”
“A LOT OF STUDENTS OF FACULTY COME HERE TO GET THEIR DAILY WORKOUT IN, BUT WHY WOULD YOU GO TO THE WEIGHT ROOM, WHEN YOU CAN HAVE A PET?”
“A LOT OF PEOPLE JOG WITH THEIR DOGS, UM, THEY HAVE SPECIAL HOOK-UPS FOR BIKES, WHERE YOU CAN ACTUALLY GO BIKING WITH YOUR DOG.”
ACCORDING TO DEE SCHAEFER, FAMILIES COME TO THE C-N-Y S-P-C-A TO ADOMPT DOGS WHO FIT THEIR ACTIVE LIFESTYLES.
“WE HAVE A LOT OF FAMILIES THAT COME IN BECAUSE WE’RE SO CLOSE TO THE ADIRONDACK’S, THAT LIKE TO HIKE.”
BEING PHYSICALLY ACTIVE IS ONLY PART OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DOGS AND THEIR OWNERS.
“DOGS ARE AWESOME FOR BEING MOTIVATION TO GET UP AND GO OUTSIDE AND DO SOMETHING. THEY’RE GREAT COMPANIONS; SHE MAKES ME SO HAPPY.”
HAVING A DOG CAN PROVIDE COMFORT AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT TO ANYONE IN NEED.
“I HAVE THOUGHTS OF DROPPING OUT, OR MAYBE TAKING A BREAK FROM LAW SCHOOL, AND MY DOCTOR RECOMMENDED THAT I GET AN EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMAL. SO I GOT HER, AND EVER SINCE THEN, I FEEL MORE MOTIVATED.”
IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR A FRIEND AND A WORKOUT BUDDY, CONTACT THE C-N-Y S-P-C-A FOR INFORMATION ABOUT ADOPTION. YOU CAN VISIT THEIR WEBSITE AT C-N-Y-S-P-C-A-DOT-ORG, OR CALL THE NUMBER AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN. FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL, I’M DANIEL BOOTH.
STILL TO COME HERE ON MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
WE’LL TELL YOU ABOUT A DIFFERENT TYPE OF PET. THAT DOESN’T HAVE FUR OR FOUR LEGS.
WELCOME BACK. WITH GRADUATION COMING UP, YOU ARE MOST PROBABLY LOOKING FOR THE PERFECT GRADUATION GIFT. MAYBE YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A NEW PHONE, OR A NICE TRIP, OR EVEN A PET.
A PET SOUNDS PRETTY COOL BUT OUR FERNANDO GARCIA-FRANCESCHINI JOINS US NOW TO TELL US ABOUT A DIFFERENT TYPE OF PET YOU PROBABLY HAVEN’T THOUGHT OF.
THAT’S RIGHT GUYS. WHEN I THOUGHT OF PETS WHAT CAME TO MIND WERE DOGS, CATS, OR MAYBE EVEN HAMSTERS. BUT RECENTLY I LEARNED THAT PETS COULD BE MORE THAN ANIMALS AND, SPOILER, THESE ONES DON’T NEED TO GO TO THE VET.
HOUSEPLANTS ARE THE “NEW PETS”. THAT’S WHAT AN ARTICLE IN THE GREENHOUSE GROWER SAYS AND YOU MIGHT WONDER, “HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?” WELL, HERE IN CENTRAL NEW YORK, TIM AND LISA BALLANTYNE ARE LOYAL BELIEVERS OF THAT CONCEPT.
THE ARTICLE SAYS PEOPLE HAVE BECOME MORE INTERESTED IN HOUSEPLANTS BECAUSE OF THEIR MANY BENEFITS. TIM SAYS THIS PRECISELY IS WHAT MAKES THEM GREAT PETS.
IN 1989, NADA RELEASED A STUDY NAMING SOME OF THE BETTER PLANTS TO HAVE IN YOUR HOUSE.
STRONG AND STURDY.
NASA CALLS THEM FLAMING LILLIES.
THIS IS A SPIDER PLANT.
ONE OF THE OTHER BIG BENEFITS OF OWNING A HOUSEPLANT IS THAT IT MAKES YOU WANT TO CARE FOR SOMETHING.
AND LISA SAYS IT’S A SPECIAL THING.
I STILL HAVEN’T NAMED MY HOUSEPLANT, SO WE WENT TO TWITTER TO ASK YOU GUYS WHICH OF OUR PRODUCERS SHOULD I NAME MY PLANT AFTER. AND THE WINNER IS ____! REPORTING FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL, FERNANDO GARCIA-FRANCESCHINI.
I’M OLIVIA PROIA AND HERE’S WHAT’S GOING ON THIS WEEKEND HERE ON THE HILL.
