On Monday morning, October 28, 2024, around 200 students were barred from entering Amir Kabir University due to violations of the compulsory dress code, which the university’s security enforced.
Reports indicate that security personnel stationed at the university’s three main entrances—on Hafez, Valiasr, and Rasht streets—blocked these students, preventing them from attending their classes.
According to Amir Kabir University’s newsletter, some students who protested the restriction were taken to security posts on campus for questioning.
A statement from the newsletter noted that this decision followed a recent meeting of the university’s cultural council, in coordination with the Amir Kabir Security Directorate.
This enforcement measure was approved by the university’s President Alireza Rahaei and Ahmad Mo’tamedi, the Minister of Science’s representative for Amir Kabir University.
As of now, no additional information has been released regarding potential disciplinary actions against the protesting students or reactions from the students and their families.
