The US government and the
shah's regime have been trying
to suppress this progressive
movement, by using lmmlgratio-
oflices and school and university
administrations.
The schools and universities
have started to put a lot of
pressure on the Iranian student
organizations, such as higher
tuitions, new rules for admission, etc
i ne Iranian Students Association (ISA) in Fresno (member
of Confederation of Iranian Students), since it's existence has
been exposing the reactionary
tactics of the shah's regime and
the US government against the
Iranian student movement.
Tbe latest conspiracy against
Iranian student ls cancelation of
the Northern California Ira_-_-
Students Association (NCBA) organization by tbe CSUF administration.
Tbe ISA, regardless of its
differences with the NCBA,
strongly condemns this repressive act by the CSUF administration against the NCISA organization.
We ask all progressive people
to Join us by raising their voices
and condemning this repressive
act of the administratloa,
