Regular and Punctual Attendance at Lectures
Commitment to Submitting Assignments at all times

As much as we are aware of these qualities, so are we mindful of the roles we should play to assist you to actualize your aspirations.   On our part, we shall not relent in our efforts to provide and improve on the existing facilities to ensure a conducive environment for teaching and learning.

 

As undergraduates, you are no longer under the prying eyes of your parents, but take caution, watch the friends you keep, beware of unsolicited assistance and do not compromise your stand.   You are bound to come across people of diverse culture, race, religion and social class, and you are expected to relate with them as nicely as possible. As future leaders, you must learn to accommodate this diversity as much as possible for peaceful co-existence.

 

My dear new students, I have no doubt in my mind that you are aware of the numerous challenges that lie ahead of you. You can make it, and you will make it!

Things you need to know about cooking in (UI) University of Ibadan
Before I conclude, I wish to urge you not to engage in any form of cooking in your rooms. The use of boiling ring, hot plate, gas cooker etc will not be tolerated in the halls. Anyone found flouting this rule will be queried and arraigned before the Student Disciplinary Committee (SDC). The University management has resuscitated the cafeteria system where you can get decent meals at affordable rates.

 

Let me also admonish you to always call at the Student Affairs Division when in distress or in need of any important information. In addition, endeavour to check the University Official Bulletin (online or offline) and be conversant with your handbook which should be your companion for important information always.

 

I implore you to register for your courses as soon as possible. Avail yourself a copy of the Students’ Information Handbook and be familiar with the regulations governing your conduct as a student. Try to register at the University Health Service immediately and do not take your health for granted. Try to sort out your accommodation as soon as possible. As new students, you are given preference in the allocation of bed spaces in the Halls.

 

This session is starting seven months behind schedule due to the cumulative effects of strikes by staff unions and student unrest over the past 11 years. We should join hands to ensure that this new session is not interrupted again. From the academic calendar, we are to conclude the session by February 2019!

This University has a proven track record of academic excellence, a trusted, and tested solid reputation for the quality of her graduates over the years.  You are earnestly advised to jealously guard and maintain the culture.  I also urge you to get involved in positive student activities that would enable the University to pass through you, so that at the end of your academic career you would have evolved into a rounded personality that is worthy in character and learning and with a better perception of life’s values. Please bear in mind that success in a race is not determined at the starting point but at the end, which will hopefully be in another three years (in case of Direct Entry Students) four, five or six years’ time depending on the courses of study for undergraduate programmes and two or four years for postgraduate programmes.
