University of Paris strike of 1229
In 1229, a student riot at the University of Paris resulted in the deaths of a number of students, and the student strike in protest which followed lasted more than two years and led to a number of reforms of the medieval university. The event demonstrates the power struggles between Church, secular leaders and the emerging student class, as well as a lessening of Church authority over the university.
