From the Cornell Assemblies
Whereas, many resolutions are written in support of some statement, amendment, action, etc. upon which the Student Assembly has no direct impact.
Whereas, the Assembly has been ridiculed for being a useless organization that rarely imparts any real changes to undergraduate student life.
Whereas, these resolutions accomplish nothing in terms of a tangible change to issues that affect the Undergraduate Student community.
Whereas, these resolutions take time, which results in some important resolutions having less time for debate, and some not being heard at all.
Be it therefore resolved, the Student Assembly’s support for statements, amendments, etc. is assumed, and a resolution stating such is unnecessary.
Be it further resolved, any resolution as stated above is tabled indefinitely.
Be it finally resolved, a resolution in disagreement with statements, amendments, actions, etc. is a viable way for the Undergraduate Student community to express its feelings.
Respectfully submitted,
Michael De Lucia
