Goldman Sachs Forced to Cancel Ivy League Recruiting Visits Following Occupy Wall Street Protests 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Goldman Sachs has been forced to cancel recent recruiting visits to
Harvard and Brown universities after Occupy Wall Street protesters
disrupted earlier recruiting efforts. In addition, Goldman Sachs Chair
and CEO Lloyd Blankfein was scheduled to speak at Barnard College in New
York City on Monday, but canceled after students organized a week-long
protest against Goldman Sachs. JP Morgan's campus recruiting efforts
have also been disrupted. Last week, 20 student activists at Princeton
University interrupted a campus recruiting drive by the investment bank.
Meanwhile, students at Yale University recently protested a campus
appearance by recruiters from Morgan Stanley.
