Iranian students and professors say an unprecedented number of disciplinary cases have been brought against students in the last month.
They say 29 have been arrested in the last two months for political activism and 207 were taken before disciplinary committees in the last 40 days alone.
By comparison, just four students were disciplined a month on average under the last government.
University professors who criticise the government are also losing their jobs.

The right wing fervor sweeping the world isn't going to just end when Bush leaves office. It will take a strong progressive leader to stem that tide. Is anybody up to the task?
