R.8 Resolution Regarding the Admission Fee of Undergraduates to the 2006 Homecoming Football Game

Whereas, the purpose of Homecoming is to welcome back alumni around events with the student body and residents, and the football game is the culmination of this celebration, which unites the student body and the alumni for one of the largest events at Cornell;

Whereas, charging a fee will only deter attendance for this year�s game;

Whereas, the Homecoming football game is attended by a number of alumni who help fund athletics, and a lower attendance at the Homecoming football game could be detrimental to the future of Cornell Athletics;

Be it therefore resolved that the Student Assembly Athletics Committee actively seek alternative funding sources to ensure that this year�s Cornell Homecoming game will be free for undergraduates.
