More than 100 students of the University of Ghana, Legon, have been penalised for flouting the school rules.
According to reports, for violating the university’s code of conduct, 14 students were on Monday suspended for two academic years after findings by the Disciplinary Committee.
They will not participate in any academic or extracurricular activities during the suspension period.
The affected students include Mr. Abdul-Yakini Lukman, Mr. Daniel Ansah, Mr. Daniel Deary, Mr. Eugene Boakye Jnr., Mr. Ismael Ali Sherrif, Mr. Kingsley Asante, Mr. Richmond Opoku, Mr. Vincent Appiah, Mr. Yakubu Awudu, Mr. Michael Tetteh Kenney, Mr. Ernest Zor, Mr. Yahaya Chentiwuni, Mr. Mohammed Guru and Mr. Joshua Asugbadek Atimbiok.
For impersonation, three students were awarded Grade Z and expelled from the premier university.
Mr. Christian Owusu Yeboah, Ms. Linda Attah Lambongyi were expelled for their involvement in impersonation during MKTG301: Principles of Marketing examination, whereas Ms. Doris Bikpe during UGBS103: Introductory French examination, contrary to Regulation 11.12 of the University of Ghana Regulations on Examinations.
Some 97 students have been sanctioned, awarded grade Z, for engaging in examination malpractice after formal hearings.
They were caught leaving the examination hall with the answer booklet, communicating and copying, displaying answers written on the body to another candidate, possessing unauthorized material (a provisional ID with written information on the back) and passing and receiving information (Written answers/notes on question paper/provisional ID cards).
The university has underscored its commitment to maintaining discipline and protecting academic integrity, stating that it “remains resolute in ensuring a safe and honourable learning environment for all students.”
In an unrelated event, the sixth inaugural lecture for the 2024/2025 academic year is scheduled to take place on Thursday, 26th June.
The lecture will be delivered by Prof. Ajediran Idowu Bello, former Head of the Department of Physiotherapy.
Prof. Bello will speak on the topic: “Beyond Movement: Addressing Musculoskeletal Disorders as a Public Health Imperative.”
His lecture will examine the burden of musculoskeletal conditions and their far-reaching impact on public health systems.
The session promises to be an insightful engagement on the intersections of physiotherapy, population health and healthcare delivery in Ghana and beyond.
Members of the university community and the general public are warmly invited.
