UBC president tells Gaza protesters school must remain neutral
The University of British Columbia's president, Benoit-Antoine Bacon, emphasized neutrality amid pro-Palestinian protesters' demands on the Gaza conflict.
Bacon highlighted the importance of respecting diverse opinions at the university and not assuming a collective stance for all.
UBC is open to discussing divestment but clarified its endowment fund does not directly hold stocks in companies targeted by the protesters.
