SUNY Oswego’s College Republicans Club uses beach ball to promote free speech
by Briana Watson
OSWEGO, NY – On Wednesday October 25th, the College Republicans Club at SUNY Oswego put up a 8-foot beach ball in front of Penfield Library to promote free speech. The beach ball was used as a medium to encourage students to write anything they wanted whether they were political views or their Instagrams.
President of the College Republicans Club Tyler Toomey said that using the beach ball as a medium for free speech is an event that is being held on other campuses along the east coast.
“It’s a pretty big event through some nonprofit organizations nationwide so we got in contact with them and they actually drove the ball from D.C down to us last night,” Toomey said.
Student Shelby Stewart took the opportunity to express her political views.
“I wrote that I support Trump…because a lot of people wrote a lot of liberal things and I feel like there’s not very many Republicans on campus,” Stewart said.
Stewart said she hopes that by having the beach ball present that it will inspire unity on campus.
“I think if anything it’s going to unite everybody because they see that the College Republicans aren’t just saying, ‘You can’t write anything on it if it’s not Republican’. So I think hopefully, it just going to unite campus and show that people can get along,” Stewart said.

Living on Campus at SUNY Oswego is Easy!
Reported by: Kayla Murphy
With the summer quickly approaching, it is time for SUNY Oswego students to start applying for housing for the upcoming semester. This is a four step process that ensures an efficient way to establish housing for the upcoming semester.
The first of the four steps was an in person mandatory meeting. This took place in the Hart Hall lounge from March 1st-8th. This meeting was to inform the potential on campus students to the rules and guidelines for enrolling in on campus housing. Then the students signed a form stating they had indeed gone to the mandatory meeting.
The second of the four steps is to submit the 100 dollar deposit and agree to the terms of room and board. This step must be completed by Tuesday march 8th. This secures the students spot on campus in a residence hall.
The third of the four steps is submitting housing preferences. This includes roommate(s) / suitemates as well as residence hall and room preference. The forth step is to simply choose from the available space and select the final choices.
This process is currently underway and the deadline for step two, the hundred dollar deposit it this Tuesday march 8th. So if you plan on living on campus the fall of 2016 make sure to complete these steps.
