"Spider Men" Take Over University - Demand Removal Of Dean
<snip>

LIMA, Peru (Reuters) - Dozens of students wearing red "Spider-Man" masks took over buildings at Peru's National Engineering University on Monday to demand the removal of the dean, whom they accuse of mishandling funds, a radio station reported.

The mask wearers -- students just like the shy Peter Parker whose exploits as a superhero are the subject of the hit movie "Spider-Man 2" -- hid their faces so as not to be picked up by police or security cameras at the National Engineering University, RPP radio reported.

"The university has been taken over by 50 masked delinquents, who have broken doors," Dean Roberto Morales told the radio station.

"We're trying to get rid of them and to reorganize the university," one of the students, wearing the red mask printed with a black spider's web, told RPP.
