Editing Sharif University of Technology (section)

===Political activities===
Through the student political movement after the [[Iranian reform movement|2nd of Khordad Movement]], Sharif students were also actively involved. The major groups with political intentions at Sharif, during 1997–2003, were students [[Basij]] and the Association of Muslim students, briefly called Anjoman (Association). Most other smaller groups were allies of either Basij or Anjoman.
Basij was a serious opposer of [[Mohammad Khatami]], the president of the time. Whereas, Anjoman was a loyal follower.
There have been several clashes between member students of the two groups. Free speech tribunes, occasionally end in harsh quarrel-like debates.
However, the major clash between Anjoman and Basij occurred while the student movement was in silence in most other universities. In 2006, a serious controversy resulting in physical tensions, occurred after Basij attempted to bury bodies of [[Anonymous martyr|unknown martyrs]] of the [[Iran–Iraq War]] at the universities' Mosque court.<ref>{{cite news
