General News of Thursday, 26 April 2018Source: www.ghanaweb.comKNUST alumni kick against conversion of Katanga into mixed hallThe decision has been met with much hostility from both residents and alumni of Katanga HallThe Volta Regional ‘Katanga hall’ alumni of Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) have kicked against the conversion of the Katanga Hall into a mixed hall. They, however want authorities of the university to consider building more halls of residence, abolish the existing residential policy and use marshals during processions and gatherings if they want to prevent such incidents from happening in the future. “Katangees are not a violent and reckless people as others would have us believe. There may be a few occasional excesses involving some members of the Hall, but that is quite normal in any community of predominantly teenage students of diverse cultures, values and orientation; and is therefore not limited to the University Hall alone. Again, the school authorities can attest to this to be true,” they reiterated.
