The effort to revise the code of conduct is now in the hands of Cornell’s lawyers. However, the endorsement passed with one caveat: The final code of conduct revisions would not be immediately sent to President Martha E. Pollack and the Cornell Board of Trustees for approval. “We recognize the fact that the code is out of touch,” said Uche Chukwukere ’21, U.A. meeting, marks the end of a year-and-a half-long revision process for the code, a document that dictates Cornell’s internal judicial proceedings. The University Counsel-created revisions will be sent out over the summer for public comment and then will be given back to the University Assembly for approval.
