University of Ghana restricts exercise activities on campus

The University of Ghana has issued a notice restricting exercise activities on its Legon Campus.

The restriction, which takes effect immediately, prohibits exercise activities after 7:30 a.m. on weekdays in certain campus areas.

According to the notice, signed by the Registrar, the restriction is intended to ensure that core academic and administrative activities proceed smoothly.

The University has observed that employees, students, and members of the public regularly use the campus for physical exercise and welcomes healthy living and wellness.

However, it has become necessary to restrict exercise activities in certain areas to prevent hindrance to staff and students accessing their offices, lecture halls, and laboratories.

The restricted areas include the Convocation group of buildings (Registry), other administrative areas, and academic facilities. The University encourages employees, students, and members of the public to use other designated areas, including facilities under the University's Sports and Wellness Directorate, on weekdays.

The University campus remains open and accessible for exercise activities on weekends, although there may be restrictions on weekends when official University events are taking place.

The University values its positive relationship with the public and appreciates the cooperation of all campus users in helping maintain a safe environment that supports both academic excellence and healthy lifestyles.
