The University of San Francisco (USF) has announced its decision to divest from four U.S. companies associated with the Israeli military, specifically Palantir, L3Harris, GE Aerospace, and RTX Corporation. This decision, part of a broader movement led by pro-Palestinian protesters, comes after multiple universities declined similar divestment requests last spring. Despite accounting for less than half a percent of USF's investment portfolio, this move indicates a shift in USF's investment practices, influenced by its Socially Responsible Task Force comprising students, faculty, and staff.
USF announced it will divest from four U.S. companies with ties to the Israeli military, a significant but limited concession to pro-Palestinian protesters.
These decisions were reached with input from USF's Socially Responsible Task Force, which includes a representative group of students, faculty and staff.
