The enrollment of students at Aristotle University in Thessaloniki began with a fight yesterday between members of the New Democracy- and PASOK-affiliated unions.

A member of PASP, the PASOK-affiliated union, ended up in the hospital with minor injuries after an argument with students from New Democracy's DAP union over where they could put up posters advertising their activities. Enrollment is due to end next Friday and the unions traditionally try to recruit new members during this period.

«The incident is a result of DAP's efforts to limit the expression of our political beliefs,» said PASP Secretary Dimitris Piteros. DAP representative Giorgos Hadzigeorgiou said that the incident was a simple disagreement that led to a verbal exchange and nothing more.
