Despite the violent violence against demonstrators, students in Tehran at various universities showed great courage and continued their protest against the country's repressive leadership. At several universities in the capital Tehran, young women and men showed their displeasure with the Islamic system of government, as reported by the Iranian media. During a lecture at a technical university, Iran's government spokesman Ali Bahadori Jahromi was booed by students. "Listen to me, listen to me," shouted Dschahromi, as the newspaper "Shargh" reported. The shouts "Death to the dictator" could also be heard several times in a video. The government spokesman initially sought dialogue, but eventually left the university. "Get out," shouted the crowd.
At the renowned Sharif University, students are taking a stand against mandatory gender segregation in a canteen. Pictures on social networks showed how women and men sat together on campus at a picnic. The university canteen was closed by the university management after students had already disregarded the obligatory gender segregation at the weekend. Many women also took off their headscarves there.

Students at the university confirmed the authenticity of the account. A few weeks ago, security forces violently suppressed protests on the campus of Sharif University. Police officers and militias sealed off the campus in the meantime. The mood has been tense ever since. The university management then suspended face-to-face events for some time.

The moral police had arrested her because she allegedly did not comply with the mandatory rules for wearing a headscarf. The woman died in police custody on September 16. Since her death, thousands have been demonstrating across the country against the government's repressive course and the Islamic system of rule.
