Message from our Editor
Dear Reader,
On behalf of the Cornell Policy Group, I am excited to publish the twenty-first edition of the Journal of Affairs, the successor of the former Roosevelt Review.
Within this journal, we have compiled fifty-three proposals embodying an exceptional level of creativity and insight across numerous policy areas. Our analysts proposed innovative solutions to pressing sociopolitical issues and have demonstrated outstanding intellectual curiosity and critical thinking. It has been particularly impressive seeing our newest class of policy analysts develop into stronger writers and researchers in this semester. Characterized by a relentless desire for intellectual growth and a dedication to promoting justice, our newest cohort is emblematic of the principal values of our organization. I am confident that the Cornell Policy Group will continue to flourish, owing to their excellence.
An independent student organization born anew, the Cornell Policy Group has embraced its newfound dynamism and freedom. We have spearheaded a novel publication format, the video essay, and are excited to expand the reach of our policy ideas. Furthermore, we have renewed our New Analyst Training programs, successfully strengthening the writing and research skills of our new members. Similarly, the Cornell Policy Group has expanded its professional development resources and is excited to have further aided our analysts in the pre-professional sphere. Lastly, our organization has remained committed to its strong engagement with guest speakers from Congress, federal agencies, academia, and the private sector.
After a transformative past semester, the Cornell Policy Group has emerged as a dynamic, youthful organization. I trust that our club is well-poised for a strong future and place my complete faith in the soon-tobe-elected executive board and center directors. I extend my most sincere gratitude to everyone who has supported the Cornell Policy Group and this publication. It has been a true honor and pleasure serving as this organization’s Editor-in-Chief for the past two academic years. I hope you enjoy our policy proposals from this semester, and I thank you for your time spent reading them.
Sincerely,
Franklin Zheng
Editor-in-Chief
