"I'm here to respect tradition," said Nikhil Bodhankar, an electrical engineering graduate student, who was happy to stop in. "I'm pretty sure our university should get more recognition for that."
Sophomore communication and rhetorical studies major Maryann Acosta said she heard of the free cake and made her way down with some friends.
"I'm proud to be a part of it," she said. "I'm here to celebrate."
Free skate rentals were offered to anyone wearing orange Friday at the Tennity Ice Skating Pavilion. The Carrier Dome, University Hospital and National Grid building in downtown Syracuse were all illuminated in orange Friday night in honor of the founding.
Campus dining centers featured an orange-themed dinner Saturday, complete with orange flavored Jell-o, chicken, cheesecake and - of course - oranges.
Liliana Molina, junior information studies and technology major, was beaming with pride at Friday's event.
"It's an honor to go to such a prestigious school," she said.
