Phillip Calderon has been charged with a Class A misdemeanor in connection with his alleged attempts to pose as an undergraduate student at Binghamton University.

According to Matthew Rossie, an investigator for Binghamton University’s New York State University Police, Calderon allegedly falsified information in two cases.

Calderon, who is 37 years old, allegedly indicated that he was a BU student, and he allegedly entered his date of birth to make himself appear 10 years younger.

Rossie said he was unaware of any possible motives and that he was ‘not sure if [Calderon] received any kind of benefit or access’ from his alleged actions.

Calderon was not a Binghamton student, nor has he ever been, as far as Rossie knows.

Calderon was arrested Wednesday afternoon, given an appearance ticket and ‘escorted off campus’ by police, Rossie said.

‘We charged him, and we cut him loose and told him not to come back,’ Rossie said.

Calderon was charged with falsifying business records in the second degree, a Class A misdemeanor.

The records that were allegedly falsified were in connection with a job application to Off Campus College Transportation. In documents associated with the application, Calderon allegedly provided false information relating to his education and work history, as well as a Federal Form I-9 with an incorrect date of birth that was allegedly signed by Calderon.

Police became aware of the situation when they were notified by other departments in the University.

Calderon’s arraignment is set for Oct. 19 in the Town of Vestal Court.
