NYU department votes for boycott of school campus in Israel

New York University’s Department of Social and Cultural Analysis has voted to boycott NYU’s own satellite campus in Tel Aviv, JTA reported on Friday.

The vote by department members pledging “non-cooperation” occurred Thursday. In a statement, the department said it is boycotting the campus because of Israel’s policy of barring entry to people who support the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement.
