The 2022/2023 Junior Common Room (JCR) Administration of Elizabeth Frances Sey Hall at the University of Ghana has commissioned its newly completed projects at the Hall.
The executives carried out the projects, which comprised two refurbished reading rooms, a conference room, and one television room to enhance student productivity, learning, and leisure experiences.
The Dean of Student Affairs, Prof. Rosina Kyerematen, who chaired the ceremony, commended the student leaders for their efforts in enhancing student conditions on campus. She lauded the current JCR administration of the Hall for efficiently using students’ dues and encouraged subsequent administrations to emulate this.
“I think the 2022/2023 JCR Administration have used their dues in a very appropriate manner to make reading, studying, entertainment, and relaxation comfortable, and I will encourage subsequent administrations to do the same,” Prof. Rosina Kyerematen noted.
The Dean also urged the residents and the subsequent JCR Administration of the Hall to take good care of the refurbished reading rooms and the other facilities.
The Senior Tutor of the Hall, Dr. Ebenezer Owusu, was honoured by having the conference room named after him for his dedication to the development of the Hall.
