Ban on Tinted Vehicles

Tinted vehicles being used by staff and students are now prohibited on campus. This ban is intended to enhance security and ensure that individuals using such vehicles can be easily identified by university security personnel.

Learner Permit Requirement

A Learner Permit must be placed on the vehicles of beginner drivers on campus. This requirement helps to identify inexperienced drivers and promotes safety awareness among the university community.
