One day like many usual working days, I got up early to go to the university. I came out and walked through the parking lot. That seemed weird because unlike every working day there were a few cars. Police had blocked all the streets next to the university. The more I was trying to figure out the cause, the less I could find a reasonable answer. I walked in the university and saw that the building was almost empty. The fact that something had happened was clear.
After some awhile I met one of the friends of mine and he asked why I came to the university. I said that I did not know that today is an off-day. He said that it was not an off-day and it’s because of a bomb threat. I thought it was rare but he added that it was happening two or three times a year.
After that day, I experienced two other ones that one of them happened afternoon. In fact the security emptied the building after lunch time because of a bomb threat call. We discussed about this and most of the friends believe that it’s because of canceling exams that some student have and they are Canadians for sure. The reason is that most of the students are studying a BSc degree. All of foreign students are studying master’s or doctorate or post-doctorate degrees and they are few students (almost 300 out of 6300 students) in courses and the type of the exams is not like BSc ones and almost the probability of doing this to cancel the exam is zero.
What do you think if something like this happens in one of the Iranian universities?
