From the Cornell Assemblies
| Originally Presented On: | October 8, 2009 |
| Sponsors: | Nikhil Kumar |
| Subject of Resolution: | In-House Lottery for Collegetown Residences |
| Type of Action: | Sense-of-the-Body |
| Status/Result: | New Business |
Whereas, Bylaw 1.3.a of the Student Assembly Charter states that: Pursuant to the legislative authority and responsibilities of the SA, as embodied in Article 1 of the SA Charter, five principal actions of the Assembly are anticipated. These forms of action are:
Whereas, all students who reside in the West Campus House System, including in affiliated houses, have the opportunity to register for a continuing occupancy lottery in order to secure a living space for the following year
Whereas, students who reside in residence halls in Collegetown (Cascadilla Hall and Sheldon Court) do not currently have the opportunity to register for a continuing occupancy lottery for the following year.
Be it therefore resolved, that the Student Assembly recommend that the Cornell Department of Campus Life institute a continuing occupancy lottery (“in-house lottery”) for students living in Cascadilla Hall and Sheldon Court that is similar to function and form to those in the West Campus House System. Be it therefore resolved, that the Student Assembly recommend that such an in-house lottery shall be implemented before the end of the 2011–2012 academic school year.
Respectfully submitted,
Nikhil J. Kumar
Vice President for Internal Operations
Minority Representative at-Large
