Students and staff of Makerere University Business School risk to be arrested and dismissed from the University if found guilty of altering marks. The warning was passed on by the Principal Prof. Waswa Balunywa while addressing first year students and the MUBS community at St. Charles Lwanga’s Catholic Community Freshers’ welcome party held on Sunday October 18, 2015.
Prof. Balunywa indicated that he is personally investigating the a number of cases where staff and students are alleged to be involved in alteration of marks. He said no one will be spared if found guilty. Balunywa noted that some people have already been arrested and are in police custody. He warned both staff and students to stop such acts because they damage the integrity and the reputation of the School.
He further challenged First Year students to separate social obligations from academics. He warned them against dodging class. “We are not going to force anyone to class, the quorum for teaching is one student. We shall teach those who will be in class even if it is one person,” he said.
