    Sponsored by: VP Chan ‘25
    Type of Action: Internal Policy
    Originally Presented: 10/24/2024
    Current Status: Placed on the Consent Calendar, 10/24/2024

    Whereas, students have historically had low access to transit to the Syracuse and Ithaca airports.

    Whereas, the transit that is available, such as Uber, is often expensive or not available at times when students need to get to the airport.

    Be it therefore resolved, $4,000 be transferred from the Student Assembly reserve accounts to the Office of the Dean of Students.

    Be it further resolved, the tickets for these buses shall be at no charge to undergradate students.

    Be it further resolved, these funds will be used to charter buses multiple times after the finish of finals to both the Ithaca and Syracuse airports.

    Be it further resolved, students shall sign up for transport via Campus Groups on a first-come first-serve basis.

    Be it finally resolved, these funds shall be severable, any funds that are unused in this initiative shall be reappropriated to the Student Assembly reserve account after the end of the Fall 2024 academic term.

    Respectfully Submitted,
    Simone Chan ’25
    Vice President of External Affairs of the Student Assembly
