Student groups urge Indiana University to divest over human rights abuses

Original: Student groups ask IU to divest from countries with alleged human rights abuses, call back to anti-apartheid efforts

Student groups at Indiana University are calling on the university to divest from countries accused of human rights abuses, explicitly invoking the anti-apartheid divestment campaigns of past decades as a model. The push, reported by the Indiana Daily Student, frames divestment as a moral responsibility for the institution and echoes similar demands being made at campuses across the United States.

Why now: Campus divestment campaigns over alleged human rights abuses remain a flashpoint in US student activism.
