(Portland, OR) -- Portland State University has announced a new committee on socially responsible investing. President Ann Cudd made the announcement nearly a month after the campus library was taken over by protesters who were calling for the university to divest from Boeing. The company has manufactured arms for the Israel Defense Forces for decades. While PSU maintains Boeing has never made any direct investments in the university; however, gifts from the company remain on pause. The creation of the committee means a planned June 5th forum is now canceled.
