I have selected four articles/op-eds from this week's New University, the campus newspaper of UC Irvine, which I thought were interesting. The first three concern the recent student government resolution of divestment from companies that do business with Israel. I am posting them without comment, but I hope they stir some comments and discussion here.

I have problems with the pro and con side opinion pieces.
ReplyDeleteThere was another article in the New University that you don't have linke about both sides recognizing the other. It was pretty good but it would have been better without the third paragraph.
I wrote a comment for it but I had problems when I tried to post it on the New U site and then lost it.
