Perk Up Coffee Cups
by Samantha Dominique
Oswego, NY- “Perk Up” is a new campaign started by the Office of Sustainability at SUNY Oswego. Their goal is to reduce plastic waste on campus through reusable coffee cups.
The campaign was introduced at the beginning of the spring semester after last year’s “Tap In” campaign helped to reduce plastic water bottle waste on campus
Student Outreach Intern Brielle Jodeit says the campaign has been very effective so far.
“We have saved almost 2,000 coffee cups from entering the landfills,” she said.
Through the app Cupanion, users are able to receive free coffee on Fridays from 10am-1pm at the Office of Sustainability located inside Hewitt Union. All users have to do is bring their reusable cup or pick one up at the office and scan the code. They also have a chance to win other prizes through the Cupanion app itself.
“Perk Up” will be continuing in the fall with a fresh face ready to further reduce plastic waste on campus.
The Office of Sustainability tables every Wednesday in the Marano Campus Center.

Kaitlyn Conley murder trial enters retrial
UTICA, N.Y.– The retrial for a woman who was charged with killing her boss who was also her ex boyfriend’s mother. Kaitlyn Conley was initially charged with second-degree murder of Mary Yoder. Conley’s first trial ended in may as a mistrial when the jury failed to reach a unanimous verdict.
Prosecutors say that Conley used an anti-inflammatory drug called colchicine to poison Yodor, who died in July 2015. The prosecution has proposed in both trials that Conley purchased the colchicine that was used to kill her boss and that there is evidence linking her to the vial used in the murder.
In the opening statement of the retrial, Conley’s new defense lawyer – Frank Policelli – argued that Yoder’s son Adam slipped the poison into his mother’s pills and then framed Conley according to New York Upstate.
The original trial lasted four full days according to a report from syracuse.com. The trial is expected to last a couple of weeks.Post Views: 135
