Myers was discovered in his apartment with knife wounds in his chest and lacerations on his wrists. Police are still investigating his death.

COLUMBIA

Columbia met a self-imposed deadline last week when it completed its divestment from domestic companies with holdings in South Africa, The Columbia Spectator reported.

The university first announced plans for divestment in 1985, and completed the sale of its more than $39 million in holdings before its October deadline. The university still holds about $25 million worth of foreign stock, but the trustees did not require the sale of these holdings.

Campus activists have continued to call for further divestment, arguing that the university should also sell its stock in companies that distribute products in South Africa, but have no holdings there, according to The Spectator.

Although Columbia still has over $10 million worth of holdings in these companies, Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs Norman Mintz said that Columbia's divestment is officially completed. Cheating Corrupts Columbia Council
