University bans female students from ‘showing skin’ in campus dressing
The University of Professional Studies, Accra
(UPSA) has issued stern directives to female
students against “showing skins” by wearing
dresses on campus that the Vice Chancellor says
goes against the University rules.

He has therefore cautioned female students who
wear indecent outfits, especially when attending
lecturers to desist from it. He ordered lecturers
of the University to throw out female students who
come to class indecently dressed.

The Vice-Chancellor of the university, Professor
Abednego F. O. Amartey said he had earlier warned
the students and they appeared to be complying but
have suddenly started wearing it again.

“I have noticed that some of you have started
wearing short skirts all over the place. The UPSA
is a professional institution and we dress very
well. We have directed lecturers that if you dress
in an inappropriate manner, they should remove you
from the lecture halls.

“You are not allowed to dress the way we have
seen you dress these days. We allowed it in the
past week because we assumed you did not know. Now
you know, so there should not be excuses,” he
warned.

The VC said “short skirts, torn jeans and other
such apparel” that exposed vital parts of the
body will not be tolerated.

He was speaking at the university’s 2021
matriculation in Accra last Friday of 8,247
students admitted to pursue professional, diploma,
undergraduate and postgraduate courses comprised
of 70 professionals, 1,623 diploma, 5,671
undergraduate and 883 postgraduate students.

He warned the fresh students to be careful of how
they dressed as they risked sanctions.
