Announcement
To the students
In view of the misconduct of both Farid Moshi Nassim Aqirab and William Naji Salem Ibrahim,

the Discipline Committee met on Friday, 20 / 4 / 1965, and decided
to impose a temporary expulsion penalty for two days starting from Sunday, 2 / 5 / 65,
against both mentioned students, with a deduction of twenty points from the conduct average of each
of them.
Note that a student is considered to have failed his grade if 51% or more is deducted
from his conduct average.
