What an incredible surprise, during our motion at the YFS AGM, a total stranger moved to amend our request for $5000 up to $8000, and there was a near-unanimous vote in favour by a room… instagram.com/p/BqyKQw_BlXU/…
When alumni are asked to donate to #YorkU, we know many of them refuse until @yorkuniversity divests from weapons. We know this from alumni who tell us that the university called them, and even from students who work at the call centre. #YorkU
