I highly doubt university endowments are heavily leveraged in such a small sector of the global economy. That would be recklessly undiversified for any portfolio and, well, stupid.

However, I would not be surprised if a significant number of their wealthy donors got mad about the protests. A lot of elites seem to have put their blinders on after October 7 and divorced themselves from the current reality on the ground.
