Mount Scopus will witness its first student strike this Tuesday, according to a decision of the student body at the Hebrew University.
The student body decided to call the strike for Tuesday to draw attention to its demand that an agricultural faculty be established at the Hebrew University.
The entire student body is expected to participate in the strike. Establishment of an agricultural branch of the university has been #rged upon the authorities for sometime and has been the subject of many protest meetings.
