Pro-Palestinian protesters demand endowment transparency. But it's proving not to be simple

SeattlePI.com Friday, 10 May 2024
Some universities are vowing to provide information about how much university endowment money is invested in companies profiting from the Israel-Hamas war amid calls from pro-Palestinian protesters. As part of that effort, the University of Minnesota disclosed this week that about $5 million of its $2.27 billion endowment investments are tied to Israeli-based companies or U.S.-based defense contractors. To protesters it's a first step. More than a dozen students spoke Friday to the university’s Board of Regents, demanding further action. But Jewish leaders have concerns, and endowment experts stress that the potential fallout from disclosure is hard to predict.
