Harvard Law School’s student government has called on the college to divest from Israel through a resolution.
The resolution, passed on Friday in a 12-4 vote with three abstentions, calls on Harvard “to divest completely from weapons manufacturers, firms, academic programs, corporations, and all other institutions that aid the ongoing illegal occupation of Palestine and the genocide of Palestinians”, The Boston Globe reported.
Two members of the board, Regina De Nigris and Cameron Adkins, resigned in protest of the vote, writing in a resignation letter that they “strongly disagree” with the resolution, The Harvard Crimson student newspaper reported.
