What impressed you positively?

"Friendly staff and interviewers, decent facilities, and good match list. One of my interviewers, Dr. Beach, was great. He talked about everything about Syracuse and really tried to sell the school to me. I can honestly say that Dr. Beach is one of the most down to earth and caring people I've met so far.
