One of the largest universities in the Caribbean closed Wednesday as hundreds of students clashed with security guards during a 48-hour strike to protest budget cuts and changes to the academic program at the University of Puerto Rico.
The university's Rio Piedras campus, its largest, will remain closed indefinitely.
The closure would delay the graduation scheduled for June 17, enrollment in August and affect students who have been accepted to universities abroad.
The strike comes three weeks before classes end.
