After taking an award, Prof.Bening refuse to think well, and just say anything.If all Regions as a government policy are to have universities,why shouldn,t these other ones.Is there anything wrong in getting the full size of the National cake for these other Regions? I thought these were the most deprived and would need more development.

Oware and Loko, you must be senile to impute tribalism and nepotism in UDS. Two out of the three deans in Nyankpala are Akans. The current pro-vc, Deans of graduate studies, student affairs and the counceling unit are non- northerners. The dean of Applied mathematics in Navrongo campus in a Nigerian and these are key positions in the university set-up. Next time check your facts before goofing.

The satellite campus system is cost effective way of educating people. Many Unversities even in the USA are going that route. I levels the playing field and make student transfer easier. It also allows common standards and policy.
It is a very good approach to education. By the way our Universities are not all that inferior. Most of graduates have excelled outside Ghana.

We like awards to further our corrupt practices. What are the achievement of UDS such that 40 members were awarded. As for what goes into the so-called planning, the least we talk about it the better.

You will not know the achievements of UDS because you have not developed to meet the current situation.

It is a known fact that southerners who take up teaching appointments in UDS never get accepted by their northern colleagues who feel the university belongs to northerners. Meanwhile Prof. Benning, a Northerner, is chairing the committee responsible for establishing the public university in the Eastern region.

as a Past student of the UDS and a former student Leader, i strongly think that making the other campuses autonomous universities is the way to go.

mr. Raymond Bagulo Bening, why must it be so,and if so then infrastructural development should be done according to the students population,it is not fair at all to come to Wa campus which holds about 70% of the student population of the school still not having literary, lecture hall and most importantly hostel facilities to accommodate which make land lords charging fees that are not realistic to student, mean while most of the internal generated fund come from the Wa campus because of their numbers and yet little is done there and everything tamale, Apaa....!! Wa campus must be of it own.... mr. man go round look at things for yourself don't just sit there and they will come feed you with information which is not correct and say things anyhow

When will the North ever learn? We currently have a university for region and now Prof Bening thinks the Multi-campus with Tamale as its center is best for the whole of the North. It's about time for this core=periphery as a a development strategy for the north to be abandoned. To continue to concentrate infrastructural development in Tamale as is currently happening now is a recipe for future regional conflicts.

My friend Prof Bening is right. That is the best approach. It is cost effective. It allows students mobility.
Many Universities worldwide are going in that direction. I work with a Community College in the US and we have about ten campuses. It has allowed us to tailor the courses to local needs. It alos allows for portability and academic consistency.
It has many advantages than the old one campus approach.

Is true that the environment in which we attend lectures and study is very poor especially Wa- Campus. we lack a lot of academic infrastructure such as desk, lectures hall and many other academic gadgets. The situation in Wa- Campus here is so pathetic to the extend that students have to stand on their feet for three(3) credit hours lectures.

Some of these mushroom universities are GLORIFIED MIDDLE SCHOOLS. How can students stand for lectures. I shall soon believe some will study under trees.
