Keeping Track

In the absence of all editorial comment, let us note that Stanford students voted overwhelmingly last week to endorse a selective divestiture from companies doing business in South Africa.

Eighty-one percent of the 20 percent of students who voted supported the measure, which would apply only to companies such as Motorola that don't "adequately abide" by the Sullivan Principles, according to sources at Stanford.

Other companies that do business in South Africa would be exempt from divestiture.
