We are a group of Harvard and MIT faculty and students who have
convened recently to attempt to bring into the open a critical discussion
of Israeli human rights abuses against Palestinians.
We are collecting faculty, student, and staff signatures on a
petition
(modelled after
a similar petition by the Princeton
faculty) asking Harvard and MIT to divest from Israel until the rights of Palestinians are respected. As of October 2, 2002, a total of 130 MIT and Harvard faculty have signed. If you are a professor, student, or staff member at Harvard or MIT, and you are interested in signing the petition, please email harvardmitdivest@yahoo.com with the following information: your name, your email address, your university affiliation, your department or college (if applicable,) and graduation year (if applicable, otherwise, status -- staff, etc.) Please include the word "petition" in the subject line. If you are a professor, please also include the word "faculty" in the subject line. Thanks! |
