Abstract/ Summary

Four UMaine trustees interviewed said they were against the apartheid practices in South Africa, but only one said he would definitely vote to divest from companies with branches in that country. "I am strongly opposed to the policies of government in South Africa, and as a trustee of the University of Maine I will vote for total divestment of funds from companies with holdings in that country," said Alan M. Elkins, a trustee from Portland, Maine.
