Investment Committee Regarding the Board of Trustees resolution requiring divestiture of stocks of companies doing business in South Africa, Trustee Krolikowski reported that Scudder, Stevens & Clark is prepared to undertake portfolio reconstitution which will exclude the South African issues. Scudder, Stevens & Clark believes the portfolio can be established and maintained with a comparable degree of quality issues with appropriate diversification, although there may be some lesser probability as to achievement- Therefore it is the recommendation of the Trustee Investment Committee that Trustees Krolikowski and Radcliffe, in collaboration with Vice President Wilkinson and his staff, prepare a communication to Scudder, Stevens & Clark which states that with the exception of the A. H. Robins Company, the Trustees did not receive the necessary assurances from companies doing business in South Africa which are part of the Universityfs investment portfolio or on its approved buy list of their intention to withdraw from South Africa. Consequently, the Board of Trustees! resolution is operative, and Scudder, Stevens & Clark should formulate recommendations for the prudent divestiture of our current holdings in these firms. Further, that no future investments be made in equities of companies on the Investor Responsibility Research Center, Inc. (IRRC) list of companies doing business in South Africa, with the exception of the A. H. Robins Company. Motion was made by Trustee Krolikowski, seconded by Trustee Radcliffe,; to approve the above recommendation. Trustee Carrigan-Strickland called attention to a letter she had received from Gary R. Murphy, an active alumnus, expressing concern regarding the University's divestiture policy. She read a portion of her response to Mr. Murphy (copy on file in the Secretaryfs Office) and implored the Board to insist on evidence of some positive good in the University arena and the broader social arena as a result of this proposed action, and in the absence of such, a willingness on the part of the Board to reconsider its posture on this matter; Trustee Bruff pointed out that today's action would merely initiate the implementation of the original resolution calling for prudent divestiture which follows the assurance of the money management people that alternative investments are available. Motion carried by a vote of 6 to 1. Trustee Carrigan voted No. 4. President's Report President Harden distributed the following tentative schedule of 1979 Board meeting dates. January 25-26 February 22-23 March 22-23 April 26-27 May 24-25 June 21-22 July 26-27 September 27-28 October 25-26 December 6-7 President Harden and their fellow Trustees expressed their appreciation to Trustees Carrigan-Strickland and Stevens for their many contributions to the University during their service as Trustees. i 1 I I I 1 • Reports to the Board Trustees1 Expenses •E.
