Kyambogo University management has filed a new report on how students have hatched new tricks in the vice of cheating examinations.

According to a report published by The Daily Monitor, the students have devised tricks such as hiding answers in their undergarments and face coverings.

The University vice-chancellor Prof Eli Katunguka has further confirmed the reports stating that he himself has received several reports of female students hiding papers in their undergarments.

“I have been told that ladies are now putting notes in their knickers in the form of sanitary towels. When one attempts to check them, they allege that those are pads,” the professor added.

He made the remarks while meeting the Muslim community to address the issue of a male security officer who unveiled female students at a checkpoint before accessing the examination room last week.

He further added that students use masks to conceal written materials.

“Students are taking advantage of Covid-19 to cheat exams because they know no one will ask them to remove the masks when entering examination rooms,” added the professor.

“Students are no longer using their old tricks of cheating. The popular one was writing notes on their thighs. They are now using new tricks to cheat exams and as University administrators, we are aware of all these,” he said.

Prof Katunguka said the university has deployed female security officers to ensure that students of the same gender are checked everywhere.

He said according to the university rules, a string of sanctions ranging from suspension to dismissal can be slapped on offenders.
