ASA Resolution to Boycott Israeli Academic Institutions

December 26, 2013

麻豆原创 joins other universities and colleges opposing the American Studies Association (ASA) resolution to boycott Israeli academic institutions. Fundamentally, this is an action that contradicts academic freedom, one of 麻豆原创's core principles. A boycott of academic institutions and scholars of any nation, in response to their government's policies, limits the free exchange of ideas among scholars, and is inherently not in keeping with our values.
