Video: (Nearly) Naked Students Protest In Hungary
Students at the University of Kaposvar attended class wearing only their bare essentials yesterday, to protest against a new dress code. While some of the students stripped to their knickers, others seemed to be naked in an online video posted by local media about the protest - you can see it below.

In a letter to students on Wednesday, the University Rector wrote that a conservative dress code  (specifically dark suits and shoes for men; jacket, blouse and trousers or long skirts for women) must be followed when attending class or exams.

From October 1, there is also no place in the university for mini-skirts, flip-flops, heavy make-up, inappropriate fashion accessories, or unkempt fingernails and hair, the letter reportedly continued.

In reply, both male and female students, plus apparently at least one teacher - around 10 people in total - all took off clothes in class to protest at the 'mini-skirt ban'. Students are reportly going to continue their protest on Monday, by attend classes in flip-flops and beach towels.
