Associated Resolutions
| Resolution | Abstract | Status |
|---|---|---|
| EA R7 (2019-2020): Bereavement Policy | This resolution is a formal request to add a more inclusive definition of ‘family’ to the University’s Funeral Leave Policy 6.9, page 15 and to incorporate a reasonable number of days off or travel to and from funeral services. | Acknowledged by the President |
| EA R9 (2019-2020): Inclement Weather | Cornell University’s delayed response to the winter storm that hit Ithaca and the surrounding region on February 6-7, 2020 demonstrated extreme disregard for the safety of its staff, students, and faculty. Due to the late closure of the campus, Cornell employees and students—many of whom rely on mass transit—were stranded on campus or on the road in dangerous conditions. The most vulnerable members of our community, in particular, were adversely affected, including those with accessibility issues, and staff who could not afford to miss work or who did not have the opportunity to work remotely. | Acknowledged by the President |
| EA R10 (2019-2020): Recognition of Cornell University’s Senior Leadership and their bold and decisive initial response to the COVID-19 Pandemic | Recognition of Cornell University’s Senior Leadership and their bold and decisive initial response to the COVID-19 Pandemic | Accepted by the President |
