As UC Riverside alum ’03, I am deeply embarrassed by the    
   undergraduate students who supported the divestiture of    
   Israel. Last year the student government of Riverside    
   approved a resolution supporting divestiture and now the    
   University of California Student Association did the same    
   in early February.   
      
   The hostile attitudes towards Israel only lead to    
   increasing animus against the Jewish people who are on the    
   campuses of the UC system. Our campuses should no longer be    
   a proxy venue for the Middle East conflict. Nothing is    
   going to change locally when it comes to worldwide affairs.    
   Either lobby your congressional representatives or move    
   there if you want change to happen either way.   
      
   Unless UC students gain some common sense, I implore the    
   students to reconsider their rash opinions on divestiture.    
   Until then, I hope conservative alumni and friends of    
   Israel divest from the UC system until things change
