The Graduate and Professional Student Assembly ensures direct and continued involvement of graduate and professional school students in the governance of non-academic affairs of the University.
The Student Assembly is charged with examining matters of interest to the undergraduate student community, and making proposals to the appropriate officers or decision-making bodies of the University.
Undergraduates directly elect two members to the University Assembly each year, to sit on the all-constituent, campus-issue tackling shared governance body.
All currently registered undergraduate students are eligible --and encouraged-- to run for positions on the Student Assembly and represent the student voice at Cornell.
A Student Assembly resolution has led to a substantive improvement for students: Faculty can now make course syllabi available online before students enroll in classes.
