recalled from Gov. James Blanchard's
desk last week because State Trea-
surer Robert Bowman said he would
not be able to invest the state's
money in other areas under the bill's
time limits.
According to estimates, the state
will divest $3-6 billion over a five-
year period if the bill, which Blan-
chard has said he supports, is signed.
} The University's Board of Re-
gents have voted to keep their re-
maining investments to maintain the
regents' standing in a court case
against the state legislature.
The regents sued the state in 1982
because they said a state bill requir-
ing the University to divest from
South Africa restricted its autonomy.
In 1987, a state court ruled in favor
of the University. The Michigan
Supreme Court will decide this year
whether the state can appeal the 1987
decision.
