I have always loved the idea of university elections, allowing the students who will govern the next generation to express their new progressive ideas and open tolerance for others free from the baggage carried by the older generations.
There's that strange salute again. Any ideas where they got it from?

The Hamas group scored a decisive victory in student elections at Hebron University in the West Bank last week winning almost twice as many seats as the Fatah faction. Hamas is expected to fare well in the Palestinian parliamentary elections, set for July, because of voter frustration with corruption and inefficiency in the Fatah-run Palestinian Authority.(AP Photo/Nasser Shiyoukhi) |
