Members of two student organizations met yesterday with the president and five trustees of Brandeis University, to discuss the possibility of divesting stock held in companies with operations in South Africa.
Members of the newly formed Committee For Divestment From South Africa and the African Circle reported that the meeting was "lighthearted" and that Marver Bernstein, president of Brandeis, appeared open to suggestions about proposals to proceed with divestiture of the nearly three million dollars worth of stock Brandeis University owns...
During the meeting, 20 students presented Bernstein with an 11-page fact sheet illustrating the means by which the companies that Brandeis owns stock in have helped support apartheid in South Africa.
"Bernstein has fluctuated. He has led some people to believe one thing and others another thing. But he is definite about not making a decision before November 22--the day the investment committee of the Brandeis Board of Trustees is scheduled to meet," Pitterman said.
Oct. 18--3rd at GBC's, Ed Sheehan seventh in 24:46. Brandeis had 54 points to win, Northeastern 55, Harvard 77.
