The University of Ghana, Legon, has dismissed Jonas Ofori Danquah, a student, for falsifying examination grades.
The decision was taken after the committee established by the Vice-Chancellor to investigate the matter found Danquah guilty. A letter signed by the Vice Chancellor, of the University, Professor Kwadwo Asensro Okyere to this effect said, the student falsified a grade "C" he obtained in Introduction to Information Technology examination taken in the Second Semester of 2000/2001 academic year, to grade "B".
According to the statement, Danquah used a duplicate Mark Sheet, which was supposed to be under lock at the office of the Head of Department of Information Studies. The letter instructed Danquah to handover his student's identification card and other property belonging to the university to the senior tutor of Commonwealth Hall, and to vacate the campus immediately.
