Calls for divesting university investment portfolios from companies that abet Israel's rights violations in the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip are also gaining momentum. From Berkeley to Columbia, students and academics throughout the US are calling on their universities to ensure socially responsible investment. (Added 3 December 2003)
