Each group calls for similar things - the disinvestment of university monies from any Isaeli government supported ventures, active support of Palestinian education for students including sharing of surplus educational materials, creation of scholarships at their universities for Palestinian applicants and statements of solidarity with peoples of Gaza and Palestine.
