    Dear Jordan,

    Thank you for conveying Resolution 53 to me. I am returning it for reconsideration for a couple of reasons.

    First, in the resolution you state that these are revisions to the Charter; however, the document that was attached was the Bylaws. The resolution needs to be revised to reflect the correct document being changed.

    Second, I noted that the Student Assembly is eliminating staff participation on the Committee on Dining Services. It is my understanding that Cornell Dining was not included in the conversations that led to this decision. Before this resolution is resubmitted, I ask that you consult with Gail Finan, director of Cornell Dining, to discuss the implications of this change.

    Yours sincerely,

    Hunter Rawlings
