Student Groups Urge Indiana University to Divest Over Human Rights
Original: Student groups ask IU to divest from countries with alleged human rights abuses, call back to anti-apartheid efforts
Student organizations at Indiana University are calling on the university to divest from countries accused of human rights abuses, explicitly drawing parallels to the anti-apartheid divestment campaigns of the 1980s. The groups argue the university should not profit from investments tied to alleged abuses and are invoking IU's historical role in similar campus movements as precedent for action.
Why now: Campus divestment campaigns have gained renewed attention amid ongoing debates over university investments and human rights controversies worldwide.
