Harsh Treatment of Students by Security

Security’s harsh treatment of students

Since last week, with the start of the Noor Plan, reminiscent of the former Guidance Patrol, the strictness regarding hijab in universities has also increased. The repeated warnings that students find frustrating bring about feelings of anger, helplessness, anxiety, humiliation, inadequacy, insecurity, and guilt, which they express when you listen to their concerns.

For instance, Zeynab is one of the students at the Faculty of Management. She says that the way one of the security personnel looks at her makes her very uncomfortable, even though she believes she has never been without a hijab.

Yeganeh has a similar experience. She is a master’s student and says that having a man scrutinize her from head to toe every day gives her a bad feeling. Perhaps many times when I go to university, my friends or other students might not notice my type of clothing, whereas the male security officer assesses and judges my attire in five seconds.

Mina, a master’s student, talks about the anxiety of going to university. Many days when I want to go to university, alongside academic concerns and similar issues, this matter preoccupies my mind, and I’m worried about what to wear to both stay safe from security and feel free in my attire. Sometimes I think of adjusting my clothing so that after passing the university security, I can change my attire in the faculty restroom and dress as I like.

Other students also had similar opinions. They believe it’s quite pointless that we comply with the security’s dress code at the university entrance, but once inside, we become what we like, although even then, the anxiety that someone might come and warn us lingers in our minds.
