A private university in Enugu State, Godfrey Okoye University has banned what it described as indecent dressing and introduced new dress code for students and staff for easy identification.
The Vice Chancellor of the University, Rev. Fr. Christian
Anieke, announced this on Tuesday while addressing staff and students of the
institution as they returned from Christmas and New Year breaks.
According to Aneke, henceforth, all students are to be
dressed in their faculty uniforms with appropriate ties and shoes.
“No student is expected to wear flippers, rugged jeans,
coloured hair, long fingers, face caps or artificial eye lashes,” he directed.
Anieke expressed regrets that most students and staff wear
t-shirts with unauthorised inscriptions, contrary to the dressing code of the
institution.
He made it clear that male students must comb their hairs
well or shave them.
The Vice Chancellor revealed that the management of the
University had introduced qualitative assessments of all the teaching and non
teaching staff of the university.
“Principal officers of the institutions will henceforth
visit the lecture halls to assess the lectures by the academic staff while the
non teaching staff will submit their roll calls at the beginning and closing of
each day’s activities.
“Students who fail to attend lectures will not be allowed to
sit for examinations,” Anieke warned.
Aneke also announced that the 14th Matriculation of Godfrey
Okoye University Enugu will take place on Jan. 27.
The clergyman made it clear that none of the female
matriculants would be allowed to wear any shoe that was more than four
centimetres high, stressing that the students must wear decent dresses.
For the males, he said, they were to be in suits with
university tie to march.
The Vice Chancellor further announced that the first
semester examinations for all the students would commence immediately after the
matriculation.
Anieke explained that the early conduct of the examinations
was in compliance with the demands of the parents of the students to have their
children at home during the general elections.
He advised young people to focus on what they could
contribute to the solution of the nation’s problems.
The vice chancellor further urged Nigerians to protect their
Voters’ Cards and vote wisely during the elections. NAN
