the student-run media culture allows aspiring journalists to report, edit and write for The Daily Orange, CitrusTV, Orange Television Network and more. Students can also sing with The Mandarins, Otto Tunes or one of the five other student a cappella groups or join a fraternity or sorority to form a community of their own. For over 40 years, Syracuse students have been dressing up as the official mascot Otto the Orange. Although you may see Otto at the stadium for games or scootering across campus, these students are sworn to secrecy until the end of senior year when they can reveal their identities. Notable alumni include President Joe Biden, former professional basketball player Carmelo Anthony, sports commentator Bob Costas, and Governor of New York Kathy Hochul.
