Board tells 3 AZ universities to sell Russian holdings
(KYMA, KECY/ AP News) - As the war in Ukraine carries on, many U.S. companies are cutting ties with Russia amid their unprovoked attack.
In Arizona, the board that oversees Arizona’s three public universities has ordered their presidents to sell any Russian investments they hold as quickly as possible because of ongoing war it is waging against Ukraine.
The board is condemning Russia's actions and in response, presidents of Arizona State University, the University of Arizona and Northern Arizona University told the board they have halted programs their schools have with universities in Russia and that their foundations are selling any Russian assets they hold.
