Dear Jim,<br /> <br />Thank you for the warm, enthusiastic welcome message to President-elect Elizabeth Garrett in UA Resolution 2. I accept the resolution with pleasure.

Dear Jim,<br /> <br />Thank you for the warm, enthusiastic welcome message to President-elect Elizabeth Garrett in UA Resolution 2. I accept the resolution with pleasure. I am sure that President-elect Garrett will be extremely gratified to learn that the Chairs or Presidents of all of the university’s shared governance groups sponsored the resolution, and the UA passed it unanimously. I will be delighted to send her a copy of the resolution.<br /> <br />Thank you also for your generous recognition of my commitment to shared governance at Cornell. My direct experience with each of the assemblies has deepened my understanding of our university. Your open invitation to Beth to attend and participate in assembly meetings, and to meet with assembly members individually or collectively, lays the foundation for her own enriching experience of shared governance on our campus. I have confidence that the assemblies and members of Cornell’s administration will continue to have strong, productive relationships during and beyond the presidential transition.<br /> <br />Regards,<br /> <br />David
