Blood money. This university's investment committee members think nothing of buying and selling their way into oppressive regimes like those in Nicaragua and South Africa — as long as it reaps financial gains. Their actions are hinged totally on a profit motive, blatantly ig­ noring the moral and social implications of dealing with dictator­ ships. This is evident in the remark of one board of governors member after UBC's sale this spring of 8,000 shares in Noranda mines, with operations in the repressive regimes of Nicaragua and Chile. "We did it because we felt that the stock had reached its op­ timum level. We've bought other shares with the revenue from the sale." Nowhere is there a mention that their consciences had recognized the oppression and human rights violations in that country. In­ stead, they saw a nation toppling under dictator Anastasio Somoza, threating the security of their hefty interests. Despite pressure from the university community, UBC's boar­ droom boys have made no move to sell their shares in oppressive regimes. They've issued regrets, but not withdrawals. Our ad­ ministration president Doug Kenny and bursar William White say they're at the mercy of board members in deciding where to invest. They scream innocence, but their hands are red. Bill Wood, chairman of UBC's investment advisory committee, says UBC's Noranda shares did "very well". Yes indeed. The $66,000 sale profit did very well reinforcing tortures, political discriminations, murders, unlawful imprisonments in Nicaragua and Chile. Shhhh. The corporate boardroom doesn't want its secret known. After all, it's making money for all of us. Countries where workers live in subhuman conditions, making wages well below poverty levels, nations condemned by Amnesty International as gross violators of human rights, are letting us reap in the bucks so we can live comfortably. It works out well for us, doesn't it? Stand up for civil liberties. Join in the anti-Chile parade spon­ sored by the Canadian Labor Congress.
