To keep a check on students involved in misconduct of any kind,Panjab University plans to create a separate website with the names of such students on it so that the head of department, while granting admission, cancheck whether the student seeking admission is entitled to admission on account of previous conduct. Names of the students who indulged in any crime or sexual harassment in the campus, and against whom action has been taken by PU, will be uploaded on this site.
The university's handbook printed for 2011-12 academic session clearly mentions that once a student has indulged himself/herself in misconduct of any manner whatsoever on the university campus and action has been taken against him/her, shall not be entitled to admission in any department of the university.
The head of department shall ensure checking the website before granting admission and give a certificate on the admission form to that effect.
PU vice-chancellor R C Sobti said, ''These are the precautionary steps taken to ensure that students who have been involved in misconduct earlier, do not get admission again in any course. All such names will be uploaded on the page to keep a record.''
The university plans to come-up with the website next month by the time admissions begin and upload names for misconduct on the site.
Earlier university had printed the names of students involved in ragging and criminal activities in the university hand book to deter students from indulging in such acts.
