Unilorin To Introduce Hybrid Timetable, Decentralize School Park, Deploy And Influx More Burses To Ease Transportation Problems

 The Management and the students union government University of Ilorin has once again reiterate their commitment in making students welfare a top priority. 

In addressing the lingering transportation issues posing serious threat to the welfare of the students on campus, an over 3-hours emergency and strategic meeting was summoned which have in attendance, the Vice Chancellor, the DVC Academics, the DVC Management, the University Bursar, The Librarian, The Dean, Student Affairs Unit, The Director of Works Department, The Physical Planning Unit, The Timetable and Room Usage and The Student Union President. 

In the meeting, issues relating to alleviating the transportation challenges and also achieving a serene environment, conductive for learning among others were discussed. 

It was resolved in the meeting that the lecture timetable be restructured to ensure that not all students have to come to school everyday or at the same time, within the same lecture hour. Also, hybrid timetable  where lectures will be conducted physically and virtually will be introduced and all necessary licenses for Zoom and Google meet are under renewal already, the restructuring is to ensure that general courses, especially science courses (Biology, Physics, Chemistry, etc) are spaced, such that not all 100Level students come to school the same day as the returning students, especially Thursday.  

Faaji Tobiloba led Student Union also suggested decentralizing the school park and creating a temporary school park. The decentralization of the school park when implemented, will prove to be a pivotal step in making transportation easy on the campus. This move is necessitated by the need to decongest the school park, and to ensure academic excellence amongst Unilorites.

Furthermore, the Works Department is to deploy all working vehicles (Marco polo Buses, Coaster Buses and 30-seater Buses) to begin operations and start conveying students. In a similar vein, the road bumps are under review for reduction in number and in redesigning.

Additionally, the Student Affairs in conjunction with the Student Union have facilitated the introduction of more buses on campus. The influx of these buses is scheduled to take effect from tomorrow.
