I agree with Ben. I am a graduating Jewish student and I was going to vote no on the issue anyway because I can see the antisemitism spreading on campus as mere result of the movement. However, the way this went down was kind of shady. I would have rather the student body decide what to do and make their voices heard. I’d rather see this fail on a vote.

Note: Being Jewish and anti-OSUDivest does not mean I’m all pro-Israel right now. I don’t like what they’re doing over there either. But a divestment will not solve anything. The consequence would be a divided and hateful student body, and that is not the Ohio State that I have come to know over the past five years.
