Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University set to rusticate students over kissing, others
The Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University (ATBU), Bauchi, has revealed that it would begin to r¥sticate students who violate the university code of conduct and dress code as contained in the revised student handbook.
The University made this known in an internal memo signed by the dean of Students Affairs of the university, Professor U.S. Abdullahi and dated Thursday, April 27, 2023.
“I write to inform you that the University Senate has approved the revised Student Handbook at its 161st Regular Senate Meeting held on Thursday, April 13, 2023.
The following are extracts of the 30 most salient misconducts from the revised Handbook. All students and members of the University community are requested to avoid such types of misconduct,” the memo reads in part.
It was noted in the memo that unwelcome touching, kissing, hugging, massaging, or sitting on the laps of opposite s+x attracts two semesters of rustication.
