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! Even some companies signed the petition, including companies in the area of insurance (Risikolebensversicherung) that are now part of HarvardMITDivest.org. |
