LASU has capacity to achieve greater height, become the best in West Africa--Adeogun

The Director, Lagos State University (LASU) Sandwich Degree Programme, Prof. John Adeogun has  posited that the university has the capacity to achieve greater heights and become the best in West Africa, in not too distant a time.

He made this statement at the weekend as the 2022 Modular Examination came to an end.

Shedding more light on his affirmation, Prof. Adeogun noted that the hallmark of any great institution includes the human capacity and the ability to rise above challenges when they come.

"The examination has come and gone. We are satisfied with the whole process. Though, during one of the Computer Based Test (CBT) examination, there was a little challenge, but, we were able to rise above it and everything went fine. Some Federal Government Parastatals came to write their promotion examination at the same time our students had their own at the CBT Centre. In all, it went smoothly without hitches", he stated.

According to Prof. Adeogun, such unexpected action could have caused crisis, but, with the support of the personnel of the Directorate, the ICT and the CBT Centre, we were able to come up with plan B and it worked, saying that alone shows the University was on the right path and would surely achieve greater heights.

He thanked the Vice Chancellor, the Management, Staff of the Directorate, the supervisors, invigilators, DICT, the Quality Assurance team, the VC's Monitoring Team, the Security Personnel and the students for the support and the cooperation throughout the 5-week long examination that ended on Sunday, 1st October 2023.

Meanwhile, some of the stakeholders also spoke about the just concluded examination.

Here are their views:

Dr. Olubukola Oyediji, Quality Assurance, Faculty of Law Hall:

the examination was good, planning was okay and there was improvement than last year. I wish the Directorate all the very best in future endeavours.

Dr. John Alabi, Team Leader, 3-in-1, B wing: the examination was conducted very well as the supervisors and the invigilators were punctual. The students, too, did well. The spacing was in conformity with the standard for examination. The monitoring was thorough. In all, the examination went well.

Mrs Mary Ekundayo, Audit, Invigilator, 3-in-1, Faculty of Education: 

the examination was seamless and good. The ICT, next time, should ensure the Dockets have the pictures of the students to avoid impersonation. 

Dr. Johnson Williams, HKSHE, Team Leader, 2-in-1, Julius Berger Hall, FMS: 

the examination was well organised and kudos to the Directorate of Sandwich Degree Programme. The supervisors, the invigilators and students did well. The planning was okay. I will suggest that there should be improvement of course registration next time. Overall, the examination was conducted very well.
