Publications

Dear Reader,

 

On behalf of the Cornell Policy Group, I am excited to publish the twenty-third edition of the Journal of Affairs, the successor of the former Roosevelt Review.

 

I had the pleasure of editing and crafting this journal during my second semester as editor-in-chief after a successful fall semester publication. With this semester’s journal, Cornell Policy Group wrote twenty-eight policy proposals ranging from a variety of policy fields, including but not limited to labor arbitration reform and investments in food security for college students. Each analyst presented research, backing pragmatic solutions to broad-ranging issues for special policy fields, with each center presenting proposals personal to the analysts. Our incoming class of new analysts, among the most selective class of Cornell Policy Group, has only reinforced our ever-growing group of bright researchers. With the introduction of guest writers, we have opened the doors for more students to bring fresh ideas. I want to thank this class for writing spectacular proposals. With the help of our new member educators leading the new analyst training program, we can teach our new class critical writing and professional practices within and beyond Cornell Policy Group. I also want to give a special thanks to the new associate editors I took into the editing team, especially Isabela Wilson ’26, an Associate Editor, for her help on compiling this journal.

 

After a successful semester of effective restructuring with additional members, I have complete faith that our group is ready to continue our success. I am confident all of our members will thrive under new executive leadership in the next academic year. I extend my most sincere gratitude to everyone who has supported the Cornell Policy Group and this publication. I look forward to seeing this organization evolve, grow, and prosper. I hope you enjoy our policy proposals from this semester.

 

Sincerely,

​

Henry Han

Editor-in-Chief, '24-'25
