Due to concerns over the conduction of a public vote for a contentious divestment resolution last spring, the Student Assembly passed a resolution on Thursday changing the undergraduate student voting procedure from a verbal declaration to an electronic ballot.
In light of the contentious community vote that took place last semester over a BDS resolution, Julian Kroll ’20 and Masa Haddad ’21 proposed a resolution that will allow community members to vote online.
This week’s Student Assembly meeting was marked by an open mic during which students spoke about concerns concerning last week’s community vote — a raucous affair that ultimately sealed a narrow failure of the divestment resolution.
