Office of the Assemblies

In order to ensure Cornell University remains a clean, safe, environmentally sustainable, and ecologically compatible educational and living community, investments must be made to investigate existing waste management practices as a means of identifying existing short-comings and opportunities to incorporate technology, engineering, and innovation.

Dear President Pollack,

 

I am pleased to convey University Assembly Resolution 8 to you “Examining Cornell University’s Waste Management Practices”. There was lengthy conversation in the UA around this topic this year, and this resolution is the result of conversations from all constituencies, as well as direct feedback from the departments and staff involved in this work here on campus. I would like to add my appreciation for the level of collaboration involved in this document, and it’s goal of ongoing collaboration between the UA and the University departments impacted by this work.

 

The resolution was passed on April 12^th with a vote of 16-0-1.

 

Sincerely,

Brandon
