  Conveyed to the President
• Summary / Notes:

  Dear President Kotlikoff,

  
  I hope this email finds you well. It is my pleasure to convey UA R6: Recommending Changes to the Student Code of Conduct to Address Excessive Littering, adopted by a vote of 11-0-1.

  This resolution calls on the Code and Procedures Review Committee to implement changes to the Student Code of Conduct to address repeated issues of excessive littering in Cascadilla Gorge, occurring since at least 2008. By amending the Student Code of Conduct to recognize excessive littering as resulting in property damage and/or disorderly conduct, enforcement of chronic issues of excess littering will be made easier and make public spaces such as the Cascadilla Gorge cleaner, safer, and enjoyable for all Cornellians.

  Thank you for your time, and please let me know if you have any questions.

  
  Warm Regards,

  Irene
