Mr Ishaq Ibrahim, a lecturer at the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA), has recounted seeing ladies’ panties and breasts in class as he spoke on the height of indecent dressing among students on campus.
His comments come following the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA) sending several students home over indecent dressing.
On Wednesday, July 2, the UPSA students were sent home by a task force.
According to reports, the move follows an earlier warning on June 30, 2025, warning students that the School authority would no longer tolerate inappropriate attire on campus.
Speaking on Metro TV’s Good Morning Ghana show, Mr. Ishaq Ibrahim narrated, “I had the opportunity of teaching law students Legal Environment in Business, and the way some of them dress is really bad”.
“You just have to teach them, you just have to be there to experience it. I am standing at the podium teaching, and the students are sitting over there—the skirt is so short that you could see their panties,” he said.
He added, “I have had the experience of students putting on earphones and going to shower, and the sound of the shower would just disrupt the online class. The good thing about Zoom is that it highlights and shows you the particular student”.
“Coming to class and showing off your cleavage or breasts among your fellow students is inappropriate,” he stressed.
The UPSA lecturer emphasised that UPSA, as a professional institution, has a mandate to instil discipline and groom students for the corporate world.
He warned that appearing in class virtually or physically in revealing outfits not only violates school regulations but also undermines the decorum expected in a professional academic environment.
Meanwhile, UPSA management has announced in a statement that it is reviewing its current dress code enforcement procedures.
The UPSA statement read, “Management is reviewing the dress code enforcement protocols to ensure that engagements between staff and students reflect the university’s core values of integrity, respect, and service”.
Additional training will be provided to the Dress Code Compliance Team to reinforce appropriate conduct while performing their duties.
This policy, which is clearly outlined in the Student Handbook, is not arbitrary or subjective but is designed to instill in students the corporate culture and values expected in professional settings. Every student signs up to this dress code policy.”
The university assures all stakeholders that enforcement of the policy will always be carried out with respect and civility.
UPSA remains dedicated to providing a safe, respectful, and professional learning environment for all students and staff. The university appreciates the concerns raised and reassures the public that the issue has been addressed holistically”, the statement added.
