Some are calling the resignation of Justice Minister Teodoro Ribera...a victory for the nation's large, vocal, active and often violent student movement.
Ribera was revealed to have close ties to a private university.
Since March 2011...tens of thousands of students have marched over 2 dozen times against Chile's expensive...for-profit...'diploma mills'...subsidized by the government...but providing worthless educations.
