He pays sch fees, and participates yet kept on spilling. Jez dat as a private uni with such exorbitant fee paid its expected their shuld be leniency and dats not dilution of principle at all.

Nigerians need to learn to live by rules and regulations.

While the outlined offences may be trivial to all and sundry it is still not an excuse to flout laid down rules.

I used to knock private universities in Nigeria but heck I'm beginning to key into Oyedepo's train of thought.

I'm a sucker for discipline!

It may seem harsh but rules are rules and rules MUST be upheld!
Rules are rules right?But you do Criticize Mugabe's rules.

my friend shut up. We all know covenant is a dump ground for most JAMB rejects and underachievers, so your 45 grade basis is cow dung.Thanks.

I got 276 in Jamb and 7A1's in Waec I am not even the smartest here. Talk with points my friend, Majority of the people here are actually intelligent people in search of a place thats free from academic distractions like strike, poor electricity, and the likes. Here we have an online learning platform were lecture notes are uploaded so you dont need to buy handouts, we have uninterrupted electricity supply and internet access, mostly dedicated lecturers and innovative management, like i always say, you either come out of your comfort zone and soar with us or take a seat and watch us soar

Re: Covenant University Suspends Students 3 Weeks To Exams by ekolina(m): 2:05pm On Oct 15, 2014
You spoke very well but I feel you need to enlighten yourself about university standards. FYI there is no federal university in Nigeria that has pass mark as 36 . Also, note that CU coming second in university ranking its not because of the number of spill overs(but because of the number of first class, 2.1 graduates and stability of your programs. that's, no strike) for federal university got more. Also of note is that two of your lecturers in chemical engineering are from the school I graduated and they have helped in a great way to restructure the departed.
mrryon:



I am a student here and even if I dont support a three week suspension for double piercing, we all signed an undertaking with respect to these rules and breaking these rules is equal to a breach of contract which is legally punishable. These rules are basic rules any responsible person wouldnt have a hard time obeying. As for the spillover issue, i think we are second best in Nigeria for a reason, and one of those reasons are the high standards here which are rarely compromised. Anything below 45 is an F and if anyone feels he is not comfortable with it, he should go to a Federal university where he can buy grades or pass with a 36. Like I always say, we are soaring, take a seat and watch if you dont want to come out of your comfort zones and soar with us

Re: Covenant University Suspends Students 3 Weeks To Exams by wckabuoh(m): 2:07pm On Oct 15, 2014
Is that your own definition of standard?? Does using an Ipad that is SIM enabled a fall in standard We should be logical in our arguments. It is even funny when JAMB would ask students not to use calculators in an examination hall. Knowing how to use calculator is even a knowledge on its own.

a 3rd class student in my school will have 2:1 in your so called 2nd best uni.

I think you are right, because he would be free from distractions, he would have dedicated lecturers and fully equipped library and laboratory, he would have access to over 127 million online books, so, why wouldnt he make a 2:1 or even first class here?

I totally agree with you on that point, Majority of the lecturers and professors here are either white or from the federal universities. Points noted. But you should not forget the fact that CU is only 12 years old therefore it doesnt have dept with respect to old students turning into professors

Its not an insult, its just a bitter fact. The Most of the federal universities need total restructuring, corruption and incompetence is rife in those structures.

So if a final year student fails a 3 unit course, it should be waived ehn kwa? I give up

****Edited***
There are reasons why lectures are given and time to prepare for exams also given. If a student knows that if (s)he fails an exam EVEN IN FINAL YEAR, it will lead to repeating a whole academic session, such student should put in whatever it takes to pass with a clean sheet.

I went to a school where even [b]ONE UNIT [/b]Course earned students spill overs , let alone 3 and this was a Federal University

Complacency is never a good ingredient for a successful recipe. Again, they must have known even before getting to that level, so kini big deal?.

Regarding Covenant...you can either become the VC, or a member of the board, or even the GO of Living Faith...and change the rules.

Until then.....Oyedepo's school, Oyedepo's rules.

What I what you to get to your head is No federal university has 36 as bench mark. Also, federal uni got E-library. Learning in CU is very conducive I must say but I would rather send my ward to a school abroad. On a final note, is any of your alumni lecturer now?

Nigerians need to be taught discipline the hard way.. OBEY THE FHUCKING LAW or Face the consequences..

The school said dont act a fool... Niggas went ahead and acted a fool.... Now Niggas are about to do time, then along come Martim Luther Kings impostor to talk some stupid trash about being inconsiderate.. #NiggaPuleeeeze.. If they didnt want to go to that concentration camp called Covenant, then they shouldnt have.. Period. But if you joined them, knowing the rules and delibrately broke the rules, then you must pay the penalty for your stupidity..

Webometrics named it the 2nd best, Repositories named it the best, but Webometrics is the internationally acknowledged rating system for Universities. My brother, You would agree with me that a corporately dressed gentle man almost always makes a better impression than a Fresh guy in shirt, chains and nike shoes. You should try it, its Fun. Last question, Would you rather see your son in shirt and jeans with chains all over and tatoos everywhere, or in a Three piece suit? I rest my case

The students suspended broke the rules in the school and they are not ignorant of the rules. We need to have disciplined youths period. Note the school did not suspend the whole students in the school only the disobedient ones.
