Rally and Petition Drop
On Thursday, Nov. 14, the IU Divestment Coalition held a rally near the Sample Gates, where the petition was dropped at the front door of Bryan Hall. Administration has until Jan. 13 to properly respond to these demands, and if they do not, IUDC organizers will escalate. Later that day, organizers handed the petition to Provost Rahul Shrivastav. On Friday, Nov. 15, two organizers traveled to Fort Wayne to hand the petition off to IU President Pamela Whitten. Read more about all of these organizing actions here.
