Students should participate in extracurricular activities: BRUR VC

RANGPUR, Nov 03 (BSS): Vice-chancellor (VC) of Begum Rokeya Univer-sity, Rangpur (BRUR) Professor Dr. Md Showkat Ali has said the university students should participate in extracurricular activities alongside academic studies.

"The skills acquired through extracurricular activities will benefit the students in professional and personal life," he said while visiting orientation classes of freshers in different departments of the university on Sunday.

The departments of the university organised separate orientation classes to welcome the new students admitted in the first-year graduation (honours) class in the academic year 2023-2024.

Welcoming the new students to the campus, the VC asked them to inform the university administration immediately if they are victims of any kind of discrimination or ragging.

"Complaint boxes will be set up in every department and residential hall of the university. The students can report any complaint in writing there," he said.

Prof Showkat told the new students that they should develop the habit of studying and attending classes on time and practise punctuality from their student life.
