Brown's Advisory Committee on University Resources Management is closer than ever to releasing its public recommendation on whether the University should divest from 10 companies affiliated with the Israeli military. To make this recommendation, the committee examined two student proposals: Brown Divest Coalition’s report and “The Case Against Divestment,” a response by anti-divestment students.
The two documents capture the fundamental arguments and stakes driving the divestment dialogue on campus. The annotated versions created by The Herald highlight the year-long developments on campus that have shaped such proposals and provide additional context on Brown’s past and current divestment policies.
