Our Welcoming Community
Our Mascot
Meet Iggy the dolphin! Named after St. Ignatius, a nod to our Jesuit heritage, Iggy's favorite colors are green and gold (naturally). Why a dolphin? Syracuse, NY was named after Siracusa, Italy, a seaside city. And it's by no coincidence that dolphins are famous for their tenderness and known for traveling alongside people on their journeys.
Holding Doors is a Thing Here
At Le Moyne College, it’s remarkable how often you’ll find people holding a door open for a fellow student, staff, or faculty member. (It can feel quite odd at first!) But here’s the thing - this small act of kindness is indicative of the type of care and support you’ll find in every corner of our campus, a defining aspect of being a Le Moyne Dolphin.
