FED POLY EDE HAIR CUT BROUHAHA: My Hair My Right – Reporter G.Song
BY: REPORTER G.SONG
Pardon my grandiloquence!!! My media space has been unabatedly washed with the news of the latest controversy surrounding cutting of students hair skirmished by the SIWES Students of the School of Engineering in great Polytechnic Ede.
I am particularly pained that our glowing institution has again been put in a bad perception as a result of the brouhaha caused by some student’s irritating and barbaric hair cuts,which has resulted to debate of an amplitude, the students espied that the school is reinforcing an intolerant and outmoded sense of uniformity on them, in what they ascribe as Canonical rules, cried out for justice after being enforced to have their hair being cut before sitting for Examination.
On this grouchy saga, my maxim is this: every setting we find ourselves possessed norms, culture, standards of proper or acceptable behaviour, and being cultured is in the eye of the beholder, because there are so many different cultures in the world,It’s difficult to be cultured in more than one culture,culture is indispensable to a reputable institution like Federal Polytechnic Ede that peach didactically Character.
Federal Polytechnic Ede behavioural norms is a culture itself, which must be acclimatized by any student of the school and It feels easier to comply with rules and culture than to oppose them or change them.
My addendum is that a man’s hairstyle can declare more about his personality than he’d ever think possible and a man hairstyle says much about his personality and not leaving aside that first impression forms a mental image of man.
However on the side of the authority, your formal learning theory offers a well-defined notion of reliability for methods for knowledge yet it is not an epistemological paradigm of informal education in the traditional sense,hence, since great Polytechnic Ede is far from a missional academic institution.
I suggest there is need for redress to the informal learning paradigm and with the excessive religious ardour.
