[This is Better Pikin's Blog] UNILAG SUG Leaders Bag Four Semesters Suspension Each

Authorities of the University of Lagos (UNILAG) have suspended Students' Union leaders who participated actively in the institution's last protest.
Betterpikins Blog authoritatively gathered that three of the suspended students have got their suspension letters, while others have been notified that they have a mail by their departments' officials.
We also learnt that the suspended students got between two to four semesters each.
Among those already confirmed to be suspended are the SU's Public Relations Officer, President and Speaker.
"None of them (SU leaders) was spared. The least among them got two semesters suspension," a source in the UNILAG Senate said. Sources close to the SU leaders also confirmed the suspension to us.
One of them said, "We are currently strategising on the way out of the challenge. Nobody is spared.

If this was done by anyone other than an architecture student, I'd be impressed. But people have passed this level na...

If this was a secondary schoolkid's job, I'd encourage him to go online and be impressed a little (it takes discipline to sit down and make stuff). But an Architecture student, abeg see what his mates are doing out there. He needs to improve and think big. And don't tell me we don't have the tools: I've done freehand paper cutting and people didn't think it was paper. All the tools were bought in Nigeria.
Hello Onegai, I've been waiting for your reply to my email, hope u never forget me o.

Ooshey,na we dey dere,na we get am!.

Omo,there was no protest today o.A meeting was held in the early hours of today between the VC and the nans president or rep. I dunno whether he was bribed or threatened, but d guy just came out looking lily livered. In summary,nans president ti gbabòde sha.unilag SU is on their own.
The school management is even using underhanded and playing dirty.About 14 police vehicles with the police brandishing their guns(as if na bokoharam dem dey prepare for) at the school gate in case any protest might happen. They even go as far as changing d minds of well meaning activists who were in support of ulsu's movement.
Sorry to lasu peeps tho,they and another School came for the protest ,those guys get liver gan.

Education / Re: How Did You Feel When You Had Your First "F" As An Undergraduate? by ORI1(m): 2:16pm On Jan 09, 2016
alpontif:
Some people are asserting here that Nigerian graduates from most Nigerian universities are Unemployable.

They have a point. But that doesn't mean foreign trained graduates are better.

It's all about the value you can add to any organisation. Before you go for an interview. Put yourself in the CEO's shoes, if you were in his position, will you be able to employ somebody like you?...Why?

The answer to the why is the reason why you will pass or fail an interview.

Guys, fork the grade you come out with, especially in Engineering. Employers are much more concerned about your Skills. Design Skills , Construction skills , Problem solving skills, management skills. You have got to be able to start adding certain precise values to the organization immediately. Most companies don't do graduate trainee stuff.

So, what do you do while you are still in school?

I ll tell you what I did.

By my 200 level, I knew I don't want to put in the hard work it will take to get a first class or a 2.1.

I knew that if I am not even serious at all, in any way, I will still make a 2.2.hell!, before my set, no one in my department has ever made a first class. The department only produced one three sets after my set.

So I settled on getting a 2.2. So I skipped classes, skipped assignments, missed tests etc. I had a lot of free time. But there was a method to my madness.

Even though you will rarely see me in class, I was always at the library, reading...not studying.

What was I reading? I never read my my Course materials until usually 3 weeks to the exam. By that time , I will have photocopied class notes, and gotten past questions and solutions.

So what do I read in the library then?. I read everything. From newspapers, to journals, to novels, to materials from other fields of knowledge. I know enough about economics for you to think I have an MBA, I know about the arts, from the renaissance to the contemporary, I can discuss the politics and finance of most governments, astronomy and other fields of knowledge is familiar to me. Ancient literature and modernist Architecture is no biggie to me.

In short, I became very very very well informed. The only thing I may not converse on intelligently is football, and that's because I don't follow or watch it.

At the same time as I was doing all this, I made sure I did internships where I can get skills, fork money. I got envied software skills, I got practical engineering training, I got rare softwares.

By my 500 level, I was the goto guy on design softwares in my department. Even my lecturers dey consult me.

This meant that by the time I graduated, I had what most employers wanted. I had the technical skills, I am educated in the real sense of it. I could fit into any organisation, and I was always thinking.

By this time also, I have had like at least 200 connections on LinkedIn. This was when most working professionals in Nigeria do not even know what it is,not to talk of students.

By this time I am already familiar with the wall street journal, Harvard business review, Global finance etc, and can educate you profusely on derivatives or hedge funds....etc.

But I had a 2.2, but has that stopped me? No.

Why?.. Because I add value to my employers. Instantly. No long thing.

Someone like me doesn't look for jobs. You identify a company, you identify a problem they are facing, or you create an improved version of the solution, you identify a key decision maker, you connect on LinkedIn, you package the solution, you send it via dhl, you get a sit down interview with the person, you discuss a consulting gig, they won't let you go, you get a job.

Fork grades.

The important thing is know how to add value, that is what they will pay you for.

But if you can, please make very good grades.

Eg, You may find it hard to make it into Harvard business school or MIT Sloan if you don't have a first class.

It is crucial.

The education system has collapsed in Nigeria, graduates are only employable if they develop themselves. Not by what they learned or failed to learn in the standard school curriculum.

I have interview several candidates who do not know how to use common AutoCAD. Tell me, who will employ you.

Point is don't wait for the school to empower you. Empower yourself by getting the skills, by brushing up yourself, by been informed.

That will make you stand out, and employable.
Bro,thank u for this post,i learnt a lot . would really love to converse with u on some stuffs relating to your post. I'm an engineering student too btw.
I'm new on nairaland sha so I don't know how to get to u bt please hala me. would b very grateful.
