  • Rethinking Higher Education Governance in Ghana This Is a Research Report of the CODESRIA
    Rethinking Higher Education Governance in Ghana This is a research report of the CODESRIA: Higher Education Leadership Programme (HELP) Launched in 2011, with funding support from the Carnegie Corporation of New York (CCNY), the HELP program sought to support research networks, policy forums and publications to document and provide an understanding of transformations underway with regard to the governance and leadership of higher education institutions in Africa. In initiating the program, CODESRIA was motivated by the desire to contribute to the knowledge base and initiate policy debates that would deepen the reforms, as leadership and governance are central to ensuring the quality and relevance of higher education in the continent. CODESRIA Working Paper Series The CODESRIA Working Paper Series disseminates outputs from CODESRIA’s research activities. Working papers constitute work in progress. They provide insights into the breadth and depth of work undertaken by the Council’s various programmes and research networks. These are published to stimulate discussion and contribute to the advancement of knowledge.

Following past experiences of exploitations (i.e. taxi drivers taking huge sums of monies from students when they (drivers) bring students from Cape Coast town to campus. In fact most drivers could charge as high as GHS50), stress (especially conveying luggage from one vehicle station to another), thievery, and inconveniencies that have been associated with fresh students reporting to campus, the SRC wishes to introduce to you the ”SRC HASSLE-FREE TRANSPORT PROJECT” which aims at transporting fresh students from and around the underlisted locations straight to campus. This is a comprehensively planned project that assures convenience, comfort, reliability and quality service. Our bus will convey you directly from the underlisted locations (and surrounding towns inclusive) to the doorsteps of your hall of affiliation in the University of Cape Coast. We therefore encourage you to patronise this package we have carefully organised for you. The list of towns, their respective fares and times of departure are stated overleaf. The departure times are scheduled such that you can join the bus at the respective locations or any other surrounding town (depending on your arrangement with your coordinator) from any part of your region.
