Two students expelled for graffitti "Stop Russification!"

[Uladzimir Katkouski]

Hi SEELANGers:

Here is some information for you:

On July 2nd the dean of Harodnia (Hrodna) State University expelled two
philology students for the graffitti "Spynic rusyfikacyju!" (Stop
russification) that they'd drawn on the philology department building.

The two students, Jauhien Skrabatun and Ales Kursievicz, were expelled
inspite of the fact that several professors and students have signed and
submitted to the dean a petition asking not to expell the two students.

In other news: I was quite surprised to note that although traditionally
Lukashenka delivers his public July 3rd speech in Belarusan, this time
it was 100% in Russian.
