Why we denied student with the best grades the best graduating student

Babcock University, Ilishan-Remo, Ogun State, has defended its decision to declare Alexandria

Braie, the student with a Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of 4.90 as best-graduating student


 over another student – Temitope Nwachukwu – who graduated with CGPA of 4.91. Speaking on the

controversial award, the Director of Marketing and Communications of the University, Joshua


Suleiman, explained that the management of the school looks beyond academic performance in


selecting its overall best students for the year.









He told the media: We look at the leadership quality of the student in addition to academic


 performance. We look at spiritual and social activities of the students. We also look at


entrepreneurship activities of our students. “We rate our students along those parameters to determine


 who gets the Vice Chancellor’s prize for the best-graduating student.” Asked if the students were


aware of these criteria, he said: “They are aware. It has always been there. It is a laid-down


 parameter.”
