Get the Administration to Address Asian/Asian American Issues!

Please circulate widely among your listservs. Please write a letter to the email addresses below about your concerns.

PROBLEMS

• Asian/Asian American students—nearly 20%of Cornell’s population—feel more disconnected from the Cornell community than any other demographic.
• Students and researchers have made formal recommendations for over six years—but the administration has dragged its feet, providing little assistance.
• Most recently the administration has suggested an inaccessible storage space in Willard Straight Hall and rescinded a promise of financial support.
  

SOLUTIONS

• Hiring an Assistant Dean for Asian/Asian American Student Support.
• Providing students with a fully staffed program center large enough to serve the huge Asian/Asian American population.
• Making these a reality within the next year.
  

Improving Cornell is only possible through your vocal and financial support.

Please write letters to David Skorton, Susan Murphy, David Harris, and Kent Hubbell (president@cornell.edu, djs98@cornell.edu, shm1@cornell.edu, drh36@cornell.edu, klh4@cornell.edu) about the lack of university services. Encourage students, parents, and alumni to do the same!
