Bio: As Otto is with hats, I am with opportunities: I have seized every one of them at Syracuse. My time on the Hill has been enriched by involvement in First Year Players, TNH Advertising Agency, Renee Crown Honors Program and Orange Seeds and I am loving life as a resident advisor. Through changing me, these endeavors have hopefully changed the university community for the better.

Quote: “I may be too short to be Otto, but I still bleed Orange!”

 

Lawrence Jackson
