Abstract

Every university orbits in a spatio-temporal context. This context, on the one hand, shapes the social and academic colours of a university. On the other hand, the setting of a university is influenced by a myriad of its activities. A good university must be looking at the face of its context, no matter how craggy or wrinkled it appears, and must be working very hard to give it a desirable pattern. It is the consciousness of this unavoidable relationship between a university and its context that inspired our understanding of education as a dialogical process. It is also the awareness of this relationship that influenced the choice of the title of this convocation address "Godfrey Okoye University: A University at the Service of Its Community". My story of our successes since the last convocation will be centered on what we have done as a university to improve our society and to express our sense of community service.
