We also want to acknowledge the work being done to divest Vassar from private prisons, and will support continued efforts across campus to reduce Vassar’s harm and continuation of inequity.
Thank you to all the students that have helped to make divestment possible, we are grateful for and proud of the commitment you have shown to bettering our community.
It appears that @Vassar has joined the divestment tsunami today! One time home of @Janefonda, Meryl Streep, Jackie O, and Grace Hopper! Go Brewers!!
(and huge thanks to @vassarseed and others who fought for this)

Yesterday we collected $1663 for Black individuals in need! Let’s keep it going! Today is tagging Tuesday so once you’ve redistributed tag a few friends to do the same—let’s see how long we can get these threads to be!
HAPPY BLACK HISTORY MONTH! 🌟🖤🌟
Today is the first day of our drive where we will be collecting funds for Black individuals with urgent needs. We encourage you to give and share, as redistributing resources is one of the month impactful ways to help Black individuals.
congrats to the divestment activists at Columbia on this huge win! Columbia must now commit to divest all indirect investments in the fossil fuel industry as well.
HUGE NEWS!
On the first day of the largest Tuition Strike in American history, Columbia has met one of our important demands to formally commit to FOSSIL FUEL DIVESTMENT, now and "for the foreseeable future."
We have power when they stand together.

Step one was a legal mandate to eliminate fossil fuels & invest in frontline communities. Step two is to fund a just transition. New 🎥 from us & @BKROT on the Climate and Community Investment Act, NY's next step on climate action. #GoodGreenJobs#MakePollutersPay & #PassTheCCIA
TLDR: Follow this thread for our latest callouts of @Harvard & elite peer universities for their partnerships with the fossil fuel companies destroying our planet, communities, & futures. Let's make it a trend, folks. #FFMoneyWatch (inspired by #greentrolling icon @MaryHeglar)
