International Students' Day celebrations first began in 1941, two years after the devastating turn of events at the Czech University. On November 17, 1939, students of Czech University were protesting the killing of Jan Opletal, when the Nazis stormed their protests, mascaraed nine student leaders and professors and sent 1200 students to concentration camps. This event led to extreme repercussions from the Nazis as all Czech higher education institutions were closed down.

Jan Optel was a student of the Medical Faculty of the Charles University in Prague who was shot at an anti-Nazi demonstration that he participated in, on Czechoslovak Independence Day in 1939. He died two weeks later, and his funeral procession also turned into anti-Nazi demonstrations. International Students' Day stands as a reminder to the sheer power and potential of student groups and the impact they could have in every fight.
