Type: article
Abstract: The present study analyzes the transformations experienced by the student body as a consequence of the nationalist movement which emerged and made its presence felt in the 1922–1923 academic year, as well as some of the interactions between the students and the representatives of the society at large: local and academic authorities, the press, the local theater, etc. After preventing the organization of a General Congress of the Press in Cluj (December 1923), the representatives of the nationalist students continued to brutalize the city: violent street incidents after the performances at the local theater, the illegal confinement of the police prefect in the premises of the University, the vandalization of the offices of a newspaper, etc. Also presented are the reactions of the various authorities (central or local) and of the press to the actions of the students.
