The Harvard Anti-Nuclear Alliance yesterday endorsed a resolution criticizing Harvard's financial policies regarding South Africa in a letter to President Bok.
The letter, the most recent in a series of statements critical of the University's financial role in South Africa by campus groups, supports resolutions of the Southern African solidarity Committee (SASC).
The SASC resolutions call on the Corporation to divest all financial holdings in commercial banks extending credit to South Africa and to support all shareholder resolutions seeking corporate withdrawal from South Africa.
