Management’s Zero-Tolerance Stance

CUSTECH Management has reiterated its zero-tolerance policy toward any form of academic dishonesty. The institution emphasized that a university degree is a testament to both intellectual labor and ethical character.

Expulsion is a heavy price, particularly for students like Usman Bilal, who was in his final year (400L). This serves as a critical warning to all students:

Preparation is Key: Avoid the temptation of malpractice by beginning exam preparations early.
Know the Rules: Ignorance of the Student Handbook is not a defense.
Integrity Matters: In the professional world, the habits formed in the classroom will define your career reputation.
