Harvard Students To Vote on Divestment From Israel in Inaugural HUA Election Survey

UNWISE DELAY.

The Student Council shows itself a poor psychologist when it holds a meeting at this particular time and fails even to consider the matter of compulsion for the Union. The question has just been very much under discussion in the communication column of the CRIMSON and elsewhere; the approval of the swimming pool plan was announced yesterday; and the treasurer's annual report was published showing an alarming increase in the deficit. If there is such a thing as a psychological moment, this is the time for an undergraduate vote. Let the matter drag along until the next Student Council meeting in the dim future, and the interest which has been aroused may then be languishing or dead. Possibly the question of hat-bands is more important; but it is to be regretted that the absence of a member or members prevented consideration of a matter of only slightly less importance. A special meeting ought to be called to put this matter to a vote at once.
