The text of the official statement issued by the University Senate on the anti-Jewish student outbreaks reads:

(1) “The Senate condemns most severely the wild acts and the sacrilege committed in Oradeamare, Cluj and other places.

(2) “In view of the fact that there are 40,000 students in Roumania and the Congress of students held in Oradeamare was attended by no more than three or four thousand students of whom only a small part participated in the disturbances, the Senate declares that the responsibility falls only upon a small group who shout and organize disorders and not upon the entire student body.

(3) “In view of the fact that the Ministries of Interior and Education have supplied the Senate with a list of students without any indication of the nature of their crime, they will be punished only after the result of the trial, which will cefinitely fix their guilt. All students who are convicted for theft, devastation and sacrilege will be expelled forever from all the universities throughout the country. Those students who are convicted for insulting representatives of the authorities, causing obstruction in the streets, trains, etc.. will be suspended from the universities for one year. Those students who arrived in Bucharest by train on December 8th. and were arrested at the railway station Kitila will be suspended for the year 1927-28.”
