Between Monday, Feb. 19 and Wednesday, Feb. 21, the Associated Students of Pomona College (ASPC) will host a vote on a student-led referendum regarding Pomona’s investments in Israel and whether Pomona should disclose their holdings and divest — sell their holdings — from “the apartheid system in the state of Israel.” The referendum, which was proposed by Divest Claremont Colleges and endorsed by 34 other on-campus student organizations, will be held via a confidential ballot system sent to students’ email addresses.
