The letter states that female professors, students and graduates are not allowed to participate in men's programs.
The letter also instructs all public and private universities to set up programs for men and women separately, and no man has the right to participate in women's programs.
The letter states that the graduation ceremony of female students should be held in accordance with the Islamic hijab, and no female student has the right to post a photo or video of the ceremony on social media.
The letter instructs private universities that students have no right to celebrate their graduation ceremony without the coordination of the relevant university.
