but the authorities have not explicitly acknowledged the arrests, which come amid widespread speculation , which officials deny, of changes in saudi arabia's rule. 

the board of directors of the university, one of saudi arabia's largest public universities, recommended in a statement that "some saudi and non-saudi contractors who are influenced by the ideology of the terrorist brotherhood will not be renewed."
