A group of activist students today told reporters that if their demand
for the dismissal of Yerevan State University Rector's Assistant Gevorg
Melkonyan isn't met by March 22, they will demand the resignation of
Rector Aram Simonyan.
The students will present their demands to Rector Simonyan today.
YSU students Arman Aleksanyan and Lilit Haroutyunyan said they had
collected 2,000 signatures of students attending the school and 1,000
attending other schools. Another 1,000 non-students have also signed
the resignation petition.
Another of their demands is that Serzh Sargsyan resign from the post
of president of the YSU Board of Trustees given that the university
has been subject to undue partisan interests as a result.
The same holds true at the Teachers College where Prime Minister Tigran
Sargsyan is president of the board and the Economic Institute, where
National Assembly President Hovik Abrahamyan is the board president.
For the past few days, student activists have staged a sit-in outside
Yerevan State University collecting signatures for the dismissal of
Gevory Melkonyan.
