Several students of the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA), were on Wednesday, July 2, sent home by a task force for what has been described as indecent dressing.
The action follows earlier reports that the university would no longer tolerate inappropriate attire on campus.
According to information available to Myjoyonline.com, affected students were asked to leave the classroom and return to their homes or hostels to change before being allowed back.
A victim who spoke on condition of anonymity, confirmed the incident, stating that a number of them were turned away on Wednesday morning and instructed to return only after changing into 'more appropriate' clothing.
At the time of filing this report, the UPSA administration had yet to speak on the development.
The move appears to be part of renewed efforts by the university to enforce its code of conduct and promote discipline among students.
