Underscoring its longstanding commitment to social justice, Brandeis University has approved a policy that addresses the use of conflict minerals in the university’s most commonly purchased and leased electronic items. Brandeis now requires its suppliers of desktop and laptop computers, printers, scanners, and copiers to share the annual reports that electronics manufacturers are required to provide to the Securities and Exchange Commission that demonstrate due diligence in auditing the sources and provenance of potential conflict minerals in their supply chain.
