While in Syracuse for the iMBA residency, my wife and I visited Green Lakes State Park, tried several area restaurants and went to the New York State Fair.
The photo (on the left) is of me at Green Lake which is near Syracuse University. (I think there's a universal law which states all snapshots taken by a lake have to be blurry.) The lake’s big claim to fame is that it’s a meromictic lake, which means the lower and upper water don’t mix. It has a beach for swimming, a walking trail all around the perimeter of the lake, and a golf course. It was a nice place to walk, get some air and discuss the assignments.
We also found downtown Syracuse had a good and diverse selection of restaurants. Our favorite was an Italian place called "Pastabilities" on Franklin Street. We highly recommend it. The locals also recommended "Dinosaur BBQ," which we tried, but found a bit too crowded and over-hyped.
During our Syracuse visit we stayed at the Genesee Grande Hotel. Both my wife and I were very pleased with the helpful staff. The Genesse is not actually on campus like the Sheraton, but it’s worth the small walk to campus and we’re booked there again for the next residency.
The photo on the right is of Sue on campus. The weather was unusually mild and cool enough to wear sweatshirts for warmth.

Hi there-- I came across your site looking for information on Syracuse's iMBA program, as somebody who has decided to do an online MBA. Right now Im seriously considering this program as my top choice, so I would love to hear about your views on the school's program as well as distance learning.
If you have time to blog about this, it would be much appreciated!
