Dear President Pollack,

I would like to convey Resolution 3: Approving the Student Assembly Budget to you, along with Appendix A for reference.

This resolution approves the Student Assembly budget as outlined in Appendix A, crafted by our Vice President of Finance, Gabriel D. Kaufman.

Thank you for your time and please let me know if there are any questions.

Dear President Pollack,

It is my pleasure to convey Resolution 5: Approval of the Fall 2017 Elections Rules to you, along with the Elections Rules itself. 

The Elections Rules link makes clear which changes were made. Most changes had to do with clarifying language of the document.

Best,

Jung Won Kim 

Dear President Pollack,

Dear President Pollack,

It is my pleasure to convey to you Resolution 4: Condemning​ ​Hate​ ​Crimes​ ​and​ ​Hate​ ​Speech, and​ ​Supporting​ ​Students. This resolution affirms the Graduate and Professional Student Assembly’s solidarity with the Cornell community and requests the appropriate considerations and additions to the Campus Code of Conduct through the University Assembly Codes and Judicial Committee.

Dear Jordan,

Thank you for endorsing the resolution passed by the Employee Assembly that also was conveyed to me by the Graduate and Professional Student Assembly and the University Assembly. 

Cornell’s compliance with The Americans with Disabilities Act is key to this ongoing effort. Accessible information technology, which includes web accessibility, is one of the two focus areas of the 2016-19 Strategic Access Plan led by the university’s ADA Coordinator Team.

Dear President Pollack,

Happy Inauguration Day! I would like to formally convey EA Resolution 3: In Support of the CARE Fund. This resolution was sponsored by Kevin Fitch, vice chair for operations.

Whereas, the Student Assembly Charter outlines guidelines to be followed by by-line funded organizations in Appendix B,

Whereas, Appendix B, Section 4 includes specific by-line relevant guidelines for each organization to follow,

Whereas, the Environmental Collaborative is no longer designated a by-line funded organization, per the 2023-2024 fee-setting cycle,

Whereas, in late August 2025, Cornell Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) conducted a review of the Risley Art Shops and Theatre and immediately closed them.

Whereas, the administration (Student and Campus Life, SCL, and Housing and Residential Life, HRL) claimed to have found safety concerns in these spaces but did not provide details. They argued that EHS had been oblivious to the shop conditions and needed to limit access immediately.

Whereas, Cornell Health houses the Counseling & Psychological Services (CAPS) office, which provides psychological and mental health counselors to the Cornell University community,

Whereas, the Sexual Harassment & Assault Response and Education (SHARE) office acts as a free service connecting survivors of sexual violence with a SHARE advocate who can aid students navigating their options for reporting a sexual assault,

Whereas, incoming students are required to complete a series of trainings before enrolling at Cornell,

Whereas, this training includes videos demonstrating consent, both through recorded lectures and mock scenarios,

Whereas, this training also features the role of substance use, including alcohol and drugs, on an individual’s ability to give consent,
