The University of Guyana (UG) yesterday commissioned a new state-of-the-art lecture theatre building at the Turkeyen Campus.
UG Vice-Chancellor Professor Ivelaw Griffith, speaking at the commissioning ceremony, expressed thanks to those who made the realisation of the building, constructed at a cost of $74 million, possible. He noted that the campus populace has a golden opportunity and an obligation to the use the facility for the purpose for which it was built and also to take care of it. He pointed out that every time the administration has to replace something, it is money not available to do something else.
Griffith said that UG is undergoing a renaissance of transformation. Against this background, he expressed hope that many others will get on board to help, including with the building of more lecture theatres on the campus.
