Shrewd Students Camera Shy
Less than half the students who enrolled this year had their photographs taken for the University's academic records.
After the controversial showing of these photographs to a 'police' inquirer last year, it seems that most students, except freshers, are wary of going through the routine.
Under pressure from the Students Association, the negatives have been destroyed under the Acting Registrar's surveillance, and only one copy of each photograph remains.
Total cost to the university for the photographs was $859.01.
