Hundreds of students have staged an antigovernment demonstration at Tehran’s Sharif University, the second such protest in two days.

Iranian Education Minister Kamran Daneshju was visiting Sharif University at the time to mark the new academic year.

Many chanted “Death to the Dictator” and “Political Prisoners Must Be Released,” in reference to the more than 100 people still jailed in Iran following postelection street protests in June.

The students said the protests will continue as long as the government of President Mahmud Ahmadinejad is in power.

Students also chanted slogans in support of Grand Ayatollah Hossein Ali Montazeri and Ayatollah Yusef Sanei, who have both condemned the postelection crackdown, as well as opposition leaders Mehdi Karrubi and Mir Hossein Musavi.

The protest at Sharif University followed a similar protest on September 28 at Tehran University during which some 1,000 students called for the resignation of Ahmadinejad’s government .

Students wearing green T-shirts and carrying green balloons chanted “Coup Government, Resign, Resign” and “Death to the Dictator.”
