To coincide with the celebration of Syracuse University’s sesquicentennial in 2020, Syracuse University Press has just published Forever Orange: The Story of Syracuse University. This monumental, 10” x 12” book, lavishly illustrated with 300 photographs, provides a unique look at the diverse people, places, and events that have helped SU become an internationally renowned research university. The foreword is written by astronaut, U.S. Air Force colonel, and SU alumna Eileen Collins and the afterword by Pro Football Hall of Famer and SU alumnus Floyd Little.

Forever Orange illuminates Syracuse University’s chronological history, with special focus on how Syracuse led the way in numerous important matters—gender, race, military veterans, and science, going far beyond the parameters of a traditional institutional history. Through narrative and hundreds of photos, Forever Orange presents SU’s glorious 150-year history in a lively, distinctive, informative manner, appealing to alumni and university friends, young and old.

Authors Scott Pitoniak is a nationally honored columnist and best-selling author, and Rick Burton is a coauthor of numerous books, David B. Falk Endowed Professor of Sport Management at Syracuse University, and core faculty member of the Renée Crown University Honors Program.
