I visited the Northwestern camp yesterday w/ my kid, looks like I timed it well since they've just reached an agreement

https://dailynorthwestern.com/2024/04/29/campus/breaking-administrators-student-demonstrators-reach-agreement-to-end-encampment/

I can't tell if some paragraphs are mis written or inaccurate, but here's the gist. The University agreed to fundraise for and give out 5 scholarships to Palestinian undergrads, disclose its investments with Israel within 30 days, and immediately establish a temporary middle eastern/north african/muslim House with a permanent one to follow.

Fwiw I have already seen northwestern students from the encampment claiming that the "negotiators" were self-selected and do not represent the encampment and their demands

speaking of which, did university of washington ever do anything? iirc they were going to but then they cancelled it because it was a bunch of white guys who didn't actually talk to any arabs/palestinians before writing their manifesto or whatever

UW/Western/Evergreen have been calling for decades to cut ties with Boeing.

They are too connected now, Boeing has its own credential and research service in UW for employees. https://www.pce.uw.edu/boeing and https://www.barc.uw.edu/

Literally integrating and funneling education with a weapons manufacturer. Dystopian stuff.

I think our lovely state laws make agreeing to divest from Israel outright illegal.

Even saying out loud you will will send you to jail if you're a state employee.

So you better believe the lovely Zionists who actually run the UNC system will put out so many "hands are tied" statements.

I think one of the key objections is that it's a major prison profiteer, maybe even started as a prison food company. I imagine they are advocating for a student run solution.
