He urged them to find out the rules and do their utmost to keep the rules and remain on the right side of the law.
“You have no excuse not to read and make good grades. As earlier stated, the university is a place of freedom, but it is freedom guided by rules. There are established rules guiding engagements in the university.
“You are expected to find what the rules are and do your utmost best to keep the rules and remain on the right side of the law.
