Student Assembly - Resolution 16 (2023-2024)

Allyship to the Cornell LGBTQ+ Community

• Term:
  2023-2024
• Assembly:
  Student Assembly
• Status: Acknowledged by the President
• Abstract: Per the current Charter regulations on Byline applications, all organizations applying for SAF funding must disclose a full list of member names in order to submit a valid Byline application. This rule, though facially neutral, has harmful unintended consequences that impact the LGBTQ+ community at Cornell. This resolution explains the implications of the rule on HAVEN: The LGBTQ+ Student Union, and lists the accommodation that HAVEN requires, including standards that HAVEN will be held in lieu of submitting member names.
