SUNY Oswego leaders send call to action to Congress
Some leaders of the SUNY Oswego community are urging congress to pass legislation in response to President Trump’s decision to end the Delayed Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
SUNY Oswego president, Deborah F. Stanley, Faculty Assembly Chair, Lisa Glidden and Student Association President, Dalton Bisson composed a call to action to send to the NYS Congressional Delegation on Thursday.
According to US Citizenship and Immigration services, the DACA program was announced by the Secretary of Homeland Security on June 15, 2012. It stated that “certain people who came to the United States as children and meet several guidelines may request consideration of deferred action for a period of two years”. Under DACA they could could also renew this deferred action and it also made them eligible for work authorization.
Ending the DACA program would impact “nearly 80,000 individuals in our nation [who] now face devastating alteration to their lives and aspirations and do not deserve the fate unfairly placed upon them” Stanley, Glidden, and Bisson wrote in the call to action. The call to action was emailed to SUNY Oswego staff and students Thursday morning.
The email illustrated how much Stanley, Glidden, and Bisson value members of the DACA program, called “Dreamers”, at SUNY Oswego and across the country. “We, as Americans, must be willing to shoulder the responsibility to assure that our nation’s laws reflect highly moral and deeply ethical positions. To refuse to do so in this instance would seriously debase our heritage as a nation of immigrants and hope” Stanley, Glidden, and Bisson wrote.

Young Entrepreneurs at Oswego
OSWEGO, NY – Last Friday was the final day of the event by Enactus at Oswego called Launch It. It’s an entrepreneur event where students take their idea for a product they can sell and pitch it to other people who work or run their own business.Students give those judges the rundown of what the product is, along with the finances, profits and marketing strategies that would give their idea as much success as possible.
This event included not only prize money to the winner to invest in their product, but it also featured an opening concert by Feyde, a R&B artist.
Over a dozen students gave insightful ideas that may very well have tons of potential. The enthusiasm from the students was fantastic as the team at Enactus stated, was the most successful year they’ve had so far.
