Young Entrepreneurs at Oswego

A company called "Afro Rock" receiving a check for $2000 due to winning the Launch It event.


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.

Preacher Disrupts SUNY Oswego

Saint Jesse Morrell preaching to a large group of students in the quad

OSWEGO, NY— Last Wednesday, a man named Saint Jesse Morrell unexpectedly visited the quads delivering his religious opinion. For roughly 20 minutes he was aggressively yelling to students his ideas of the LGBT community, targeting their lifestyle, calling it a sin. The students didn’t agree with what he was saying, retallying back in an argument until the police showed up. Since he did not have a free speech permit from the school, he was asked to leave. 

“He has freedom of speech,” Oswego student Sarah Novak said after he targeting her and her girlfriend. “So we also have freedom of speech, so we choose to kiss and fight hate with love”

The full video of the event was uploading by Jesse Morrell – Open Air Street Preacher on YouTube. The campus still has not responded on the situation.
