Since the 2012-2013 academic year, Nazareth offers a special alumni rate of $125 per undergraduate course (plus a $30 registration fee) to audit select classes. Certain rules and restrictions apply with regard to class selection, availability, and course enrollment, as students taking courses for credit are always given priority. No credit is earned and no grade is given when auditing and courses may not be used to augment or add to past or future degree programs.

When wintry weather arrives, Nazareth's tunnels let students avoid the snow. Fellow Flyers can be spotted wearing shorts and flip-flops as they dash from dorm to classroom in the dead of winter. Since the 1940s, students have brightened the underground landscape by painting murals on the tunnel walls, at least one of which still exists today. The first tunnel mural (below) was created in 1942 by John C. Menihan, a friend of Nazareth and one of upstate New York’s most prominent and beloved artists. His mural, can be found on the tunnel wall leading from Smyth Hall to the Shults Center, depicts the Biblical figure of Ruth.

Nazareth’s sports teams’ nickname “Golden Flyers” was adopted in 1977 when men’s basketball started. At that time, members of the Nazareth community were asked to submit names that described the bird-like symbol in the University’s official logo. A committee of students and administrators selected the name from the top three suggestions: Flyers, Wings, and Firebirds. “Golden” was added to further identify with Nazareth’s purple and gold colors. While a handful of other schools around the country have Flyers as a nickname, Nazareth retains sole possession of “Golden Flyers.” In recent years, the Golden Flyer mascot has become leaner, stronger, and faster, and in 2016 acquired both a superhero backstory and a community voted name: Swoop.
