Students of the Lutsk Basic Medical College came out onto the street chanting: "There will be no classes! Yushchenko is our President!" Right now they are standing in front of the educational institution's building with "Yes! Yushchenko!" flags, orange ribbons and scarves. At 10 o'clock, a rally will begin on Theater Square in Lutsk for the participation of representatives of political parties and public organizations, which the students intend to join.
Yesterday, a decision was made by the rectorate of Lesya Ukrainka Volyn State University to join the nationwide strike. The university has 12 thousand students. Since morning, more than 3 thousand students have gathered on the main square of Lutsk. Right now, others are arriving in columns from various buildings of the university.
Teachers of schools in Lutsk and Volyn declare their support for the nationwide act of defiance for the purpose of protecting their choice and express no confidence in the Central Election Commission. Classes in schools are still taking place, but everyone is ready to support Yushchenko's supporters with their presence.
