Student Assembly

Sponsored by: Ulysses Smith ‘13

Whereas, Cornell is unique in its shared governance structure and the various levels at which students are involved;

Whereas, the current judicial system allows for students to serve on various judicial boards addressing violations of the Code of Conduct, House Rules, Academic Integrity, and violations unique to the Greek system;

Whereas, there is currently no venue for adjudication for cases of students, student organizations, or student governing bodies against students, student organizations, or student governing bodies;

Whereas, there is currently no realistically feasible method for students to challenge the actions of the Student Assembly or to hold its individual members accountable for actions or failure to perform the duties of their position;

Be it therefore resolved, that the SA accept the attached Bylaws of the University Student Supreme Court.
