OSWEGO, N.Y. – The SUNY Oswego student that was arrested for raping another student two weeks ago has been formally charged. Adarsha Budhathoki was charged with third-degree rape, second-degree unlawful imprisonment and third-degree sexual abuse.

The incident was reported to University Police by the victim on Oct. 25. Budhathoki was arrested four days later. The two individuals that were involved in this case were acquaintances. It has been reported that there were no drugs or alcohol involved in this incident.

Budhathoki was a resident of Cayuga Residence Hall. The rape took place in Funnelle Residence Hall. He allegedly restrained the victim, not allowing her to leave the room. He also committed other sexual acts and consent was not given.

In response to the incident, an email was sent from SUNY Oswego President, Deborah Stanley, to the students. The email informed students what happened on campus and directed students where they can find more information about Title IX.

OSWEGO, N.Y.–  Family and friends weekend gave a new luxury apartment community the chance to find future residents. Students, their families, and friends enjoyed activities, prizes and food at the Lakeside Commons first open house.

The open house included tours of the clubhouse which will be the 24 hour central hub of the community. The clubhouse includes a fireplace lounge and a fitness center on the first floor. On the second floor students can use the game room with a large screen TV, arcade games, table tennis, and shuffleboard. Directly across from the game room is the genius lab which is a study center with computers, free printing, and private study and conference rooms.

Although the 84 units are not completed, a model unit was available to look at. All apartments will have a fully furnished living room and modern kitchens. Unlike other housing options, students who live in the Lakeside Commons will have their own private bathroom. The apartments feature two, four or six rooms and range between $810-$855 per room depending on size and add-ons. For example, students would have to pay an additional ten dollars a month if they want a bathroom with a tub instead of a stand in shower.

“We should be done with construction by next June or July,” said leasing manager Caulin Price. “I’m very excited, it’s good to get things under way here.”

Their guaranteed move in date is August 25, 2018.
