NYU encampment calls for 'divestment' by end of summer termpublished at 20:39 British Summer Time 29 April
The New York University (NYU) encampment has issued a letter, demanding a meeting today with the senior leadership team.
They want the "disclosure" of documents showing the establishment’s endowments, and how the university "will divest" by the end of the summer term.
"This includes direct investments and indirect holdings, and the documents outlining NYU’s portfolios, including those documents handled by external investments managers," the letter adds.
It also asks for a “written confirmation of full amnesty” for all students and faculty who have been arrested in the encampments, as well as information about the "extent" of the NYPD's involvement on campus.
