Student Assembly

R.11 Voting Rights for Members of the Undergraduate Community

“The Community Clause 2.0”

Whereas, the Preamble of the Student Assembly Charter states that the Student Assembly will “effect more extensive involvement in campus governance.”

Whereas, the Student Assembly seeks to further engage the undergraduate student community all issues relating to undergraduate student life at Cornell University.

Be it therefore resolved:

The following changes are made to the Student Assembly charter: 3.1 Composition The SA will consist of 23 voting members, who are registered undergraduate students at Cornell University. Up to two additional votes shall be allocated to the entire community of undergraduates as a whole present at a Student Assembly meeting on motions that express the opinion of the Assembly without further effect. Such community votes shall be allowed only as provided by the Assembly in its bylaws. Eleven voting members of the SA will be elected by and from the student populations of the colleges and schools, one from each: the College of Architecture, Art and Planning; the School of Hotel Administration; the College of Human Ecology; and the School of Industrial and Labor Relations.

Respectfully submitted,

Student Assembly, President
