We had Iranian students in 78-79, many in engineering .
There were some anti Shah protests.
Yes the Shaw was brutal.
But if these students had any idea what was coming I don’t think they ever would have wanted what they now have.

There were always protest by Iranians at Texas Tech cir 1978-79. They wore mask made from paper plates around the campus UC area.

Funny how when the Shah fell, they disappeared since their school funding was cut off.

The Shah might have been cooperative, if the students were peaceful.

THE SHAH WANTED TO ALLOW GIRLS TO GET EDUCATED.

THE MALES THREW HIM OUT
