President Martha Pollack expressed that she did not support the Student Assembly’s Resolution 15 — which requests that the University supply funds for an M.D. gynecologist — in a Feb. 10 email to Valeria Valencia ’23, S.A. president and co-sponsor of Resolution 15, citing Cornell Health’s existing gynecologic health support. The University Assembly approved a very similar resolution, Resolution 2, on Nov. 29. She noted that the local providers to which Cornell Health refers students partake in the Student Health Plan. Many S.A. members expressed frustration with Pollack’s lack of support for funding to hire a gynecologist for Cornell Health.
