Dear Bob,

Thank you for forwarding UA Resolution #1, “Recognition of the Office of the University Ombudsman 50th Anniversary.”

Dear Adam,

Thank you for sending EA Resolution 2: Consolidation of Committees to Vice President Opperman and me. I commend the EA for the careful and thoughtful way in which the members arrived at the decision to permanently consolidate standing committees. I’m pleased that the one-year trial of the modified committee structure gave you an opportunity to assess the effectiveness of the change. I am glad to learn that this change was effective, and endorse this resolution.

Sincerely,

Martha Pollack

Dear Matt,

Thank you for forwarding UA Resolution #6, “Recognition of Outstanding Support to the AY 2019 Legislative Session.”

Dear Matthew,

Thank you for submitting U.A. Resolution #3, “Examining the Need to Augment the Cornell Childcare Facility,” for my review and response. I appreciate the University Assembly’s advocacy for Cornell’s students, faculty, and staff with children.

Childcare is indeed a critical issue for our community. The Division of Human Resources, specifically the Work/Life office, is responsible for assessing community needs and implementing care options and resources.

Dear Ekarina,

Thank you for conveying to me Resolution 6: Approval of Rules for the Ivy+ Student Group.

 

Sincerely,

Martha Pollack

Dear Ekarina,

Thank you for conveying to me Resolution 5 - Ratification of Ivy+ Student Groups Constitution. Each time I meet with colleagues from peer institutions I come away with new ideas and energy. I’m so happy to see that the GPSA leaders have similar opportunities to share ideas with graduate and professional students from other schools in the Ivy+ group. 

 

Sincerely,

 

Martha Pollack

Thank you for conveying to me Resolution 7: Improving Outdoor Space at the Big Red Barn. I’m sure that the new picnic tables will be a welcome addition to the Big Red Barn and will be enjoyed by graduate and professional students for many years to come.
