College shutdown on the West Bank opposed by pair
By Bonnie DeSimone, News Staff Reporter
Transcribed from the clipping
The government of Menachem Begin is suppressing academic freedom in universities in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, say two professors — one Israeli, one Palestinian — who are on a three-week tour of American cities.
Military order 854, passed by the Israeli parliament in July, 1980, gives the Israeli civil administration, which governs the occupied territories, full control over academic institutions within their jurisdiction.
