The clash between police and students happened in Wits and Cape Town universities that forced the Uni to suspend classes on Wednesday for the second time in less than a month.
Protests first erupted last year, then eased off as the government froze fee increases after a a commission was set up to look into the education funding system.
Police on Tuesday fired stun grenades, rubber bullets and tear gas after students calling for free education at the Johannesburg campus threw stones at police and flipped one vehicle. The university said some protesters had earlier pulled lecturers out of their offices as they prepared to restart classes after the shutdown called on September 20.
