The Dean of Students Affairs at Kaduna Polytechnic has expressed concern over the increasing trend of "signing out" practices during graduation ceremonies. In a memo addressed to all students on October 13, 2024, the dean highlighted the inappropriate behavior of graduates covering themselves in ink and writing messages on their clothes, which has become common in recent ceremonies.
The dean condemned these acts as a reflection of moral decay, emphasizing that they undermine the values of discipline, respect, and responsibility that Kaduna Polytechnic upholds. He urged graduates to celebrate their achievements with decorum and integrity, reminding them that they represent the institution and their actions reflect on its reputation.
Students were warned that any inappropriate behavior during future graduations would result in disciplinary action, which may impact the release of their academic documents. The administration plans to work with the Students Union Government to ensure dignified celebrations moving forward.
