	Die-in for Darfur On May 17th, 2007, the last day of classes, 82 members of the MIT Community staged a die-in by laying down in Lobby 7 to raise awareness of both the situation in Darfur and the odd response of the MIT administration. After the die-in, approximately 50 students proceeded to President Hockfield's office to reiterate the request for a meeting, for transparency, and a clarification about divestment. That summer, students, staff and alumni met several times with Kirk Kolenbrander, Secretary of the MIT Corporation and VP for Institute Affairs. As a result of those meetings, MIT has confirmed divestment. Furthermore, we are discussing with the administration how to implement a Standing Committee on Investment Responsibility.
