Iâm Brittni McGuire, a senior at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln writing on behalf of Divest NU, a coalition advocating for the University of Nebraska to divest from fossil fuels. This is our mandate for NU to announce its commitment to divest by the next Board of Regents meeting on April 9, 2021.Â
As students, we come to the University of Nebraska to invest in our future. In exchange for tuition, the university invests countless resources to prepare us to positively impact the world after graduation. Itâs unsettling that our investment is being counteracted by the universityâs investment in fossil fuels â an industry destroying the lives of people and the planet, making our future uncertain.Â
