(ANSA) - ROME, SEP 25 - Students were pitching tents outside university buildings all over Italy on Monday to protest at the astronomical rents they face when studying away from their home towns.

It is the latest in a series of camp protest students have staged to highlight the problem.
This one will last all week in 25 Italian cities.

"We are pitching tents at La Sapienza (University on Rome) again," said the Union of University Students (UDU).

"We decided to protest as the government continues to ignore the high cost of studying and the accommodation crisis, without implementing any concrete solutions".
