The Corporation, Brown’s highest governing body, will vote on divestment from companies affiliated with Israel at its October meeting following an agreement between encampment organizers and University administrators this afternoon. Organizers announced the agreement at a rally.
quote:
Organizers have agreed to clear the Main Green encampment by 5 p.m. today and not hold any unauthorized protests through Commencement, which ends May 26. Students in the encampment, which began last Wednesday, have been calling on the University to divest from companies with ties to the Israeli government and drop the charges against the 41 students arrested in a Dec. 11 University Hall sit-in. Charges against the 41 arrested students will not be dropped at this time.
quote:
According to a copy of the agreement reviewed by The Herald, five students will still meet with at least five Corporation members, including Chancellor Samuel Mencoff ’78 P’11 P’15 and Vice President and Chief Investment Office Jane Dietze, this May.
quote:
The Tuesday decision marks the culmination of a months-long series of demonstrations calling for divestment from companies affiliated with Israel, including a hunger strike and two University Hall sit-ins that resulted in the arrest of 61 students for trespassing.

Northwestern did the same. Wonder if the Jews are gonna continue to vote Marxist as their intuitions of higher learning divest from Jewish entities and programs.

What constitutes an "affiliation"? Corporate headquarters, R&D facility or contractor, simply sell products there?
This is so vague it could probably apply to every major corporation...and you could do the same with almost any company if you substituted Israel with China or Taiwan.

Soros is Jewish. Israel is Jewish. Divest from Soros owned companies.
We may have some common ground.
