Celebrate Forever Orange Week 2024, March 21-28, with opportunities to engage in a variety of programming.

Forever Orange Week 2024, set for March 21-28, promises a great deal of fun—including many opportunities for students and alumni to connect at programs that celebrate all things ORANGE!

The weeklong celebration marks Syracuse University’s founding on March 24, 1870, and highlights the connections made once a student joins the Orange community and becomes Forever Orange.

Kick things off with three incredible Orange After Dark activities, including Otto’s Birthday Party on Saturday night. Then, be sure to wear Orange on Sunday, March 24, for National Orange Day. The day marks the 154th anniversary of the day Syracuse University was founded. It’s a day that emphasizes the power of the Orange Network and the importance of staying Forever Orange.

On Monday, March 25, it’s Forever Orange in Action with alumni Jace Rodrigues ’21, touring and artist development coordinator at Atlantic Records, and Crystal Thompson ’07, assistant vice president of brand engagement at L’Oréal Paris. Rodrigues and Thompson will connect with students about what being Forever Orange means following graduation and how their careers reflect that. And, be sure to stop by Schine Student Center during Philanthropy is Sweet to learn why philanthropy is important to our Orange community.

Those events all lead up to Syracuse University Giving Day on March 27, a chance for the entire community to come together and make a gift to Syracuse. We’ll feature some of the best of Syracuse University in live shows streaming on the giving day website, all hosted by ESPN’s Kayla Burton G’19.

Rounding out the week, don’t miss the Forever Orange Celebration hosted by the Office of Alumni Engagement and Annual Giving in partnership with Student Engagement. It will be an Orange-palooza with cupcakes, musical performances and more fun activities in Schine along with an appearance by Otto.

Forever Orange Week highlights the importance of a close-knit Orange community and the power of what we can do TOGETHER. Don’t miss the Forever Orange Week programs!
