THE Vice Chancellor, Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko, Ondo State, Nigeria, Prof. Femi Mimiko, has said that the Institution would continue to evolve policies and programmes that would ensure that students stay is memorable and impactful.

Prof. Mimiko stated this at the maiden edition of the University’s Leave a Legacy programme organized by the Institution through the University Advancement Office, UAO, for all the leaders of Student Associations and Groups in the University last week.

He said; “Here at AUAA, we are trying and committed to making your stay as students as exciting as possible. We want you to have positive experiences as students so that when you graduate, you will be eager to give your University support without which it will not survive.”

He thanked the University Advancement Office, under the leadership its Acting Director, Prof. Francis Oyebade, for the good sense it had demonstrated over the years in delivering its mandate.

The VC, who lamented the dwindling state of proprietary funding to universities across the nation, said Universities must begin to come up with creative ideas directed at expanding their revenue base in order to meet with their most crucial responsibilities.
