submitted by greena@augsburg.edu

The campus sustainability world is encouraging people to make public comments about a recent Securities and Exchange Commission rule change that would negatively impact shareholders ability to advocate for Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) investing. The deadline for submitting a public comment is Monday, Feb. 3, and you can find more info below.

The Investment Subcommittee of the Augsburg Board of Regents has introduced a conversation to explore an ESG policy for our own investing. Feel free to reach out with questions and spread the word to others you know who would be impacted by this decision.
