California College Student Arrested in Iran

October 29th, 2008 Me

My friend Malina emailed me this evening with a petition signing request for the immediate release of a California college student who was arrested in Iran.  Malina’s original message follows…

I try to keep these to a minimum, but since I just returned from a trip to Iran unmarred by any harrassement, problems, bad-vibes or run-ins with the Islamic Republic, this issue hits particularly close to home.  Given my overwhelmingly postive experience an arrest like this makes me even sadder than it normally would.  If you have a second check out this petition.  I don’t know very much about this woman but my advisor is on an important academic freedom commitee and they are supporting this petition drive so I know it’s legit and important.

Thank you for your support.
