Dear President Skorton,
I would like to convey Resolution 58: Know the Power of Your Words Campaign to you.

SA R65 (2014-2015): Returned by the President
Dear Matthew,
I am sorry if my request for reconsideration upset you. My fundamental concern is to have the due diligence done and approved BEFORE the funds (the $350,000) are released, not grant that authority assuming the due diligence is met. I never intended for work to stop, and I understand from communicating with Vice President Murphy that indeed Rob Hendricks and Laurel Moffatt are very busy at work with Gary Stewart, Kent Hubbell and many others to move things along.

Dear President Skorton,
SA R66 (2014-2015): Acknowledged by the President
Thank you for sharing the Class Councils Constitution Changes with me, as well as the Student Assembly’s approval of them, communicated through Resolution 66. I, too, appreciate their efforts to increase the fairness and inclusiveness of election processes.
Regards,
David Skorton
SA R71 (2014-2015): Acknowledged by the President
Thank you for sharing Resolution 71, 2015 Performance Tier SAFC Appeals. I am pleased to see the thought and consideration that goes into evaluating tier placement and the appeals that are filed.
Regards,
David Skorton
UA R8 (2014-2015): Accepted by the President
Thank you for sharing with me the University Assembly’s Resolution 8 (Revised), which updates the Assembly Bylaws to match the revised Charter of the Campus Planning Committee. The resulting alignment satisfies the requirement that both the Assembly and the responsible administrative unit approve changes to the charge of an associated committee of the Assembly. I am pleased to learn that the Assembly participated in the CPC’s six-month process of reviewing and updating its Charter.
Regards,
David
UA R12 (2014-2015): Accepted by the President
Thank you for submitting the University Assembly’s Resolution 12 (Revised), Charge to the Cornell Bicycle and Pedestrian Committee.
GPSA R9 (2014-2015): Deferred by the President
I appreciate the GPSA’s resolution in support of Assistant Dean Joseph Scaffido. Cornell University strives to promote the peaceful, honest, and responsible exchange of ideas while rejecting, in the strongest terms, any incitement to violence. The heavily edited video released by Project Veritas was a flagrant and malicious attempt to misrepresent these Cornell values.
