摘要:Nigerian universities profess to develop students in learning and character. The Cumulative Grade Point Average [CGPA] only actually captures the learning prowess of the students but completely neglects the "character" aspect. This is considered a serious oversight considering the crucial importance of moral competency in building a society built on Justice, a trait which is sorely lacking in the Nigerian society today. The concept of the Moral Grade Point Average [MGPA] is introduced and suggestions are made on how Nigerian universities can institutionalize the MGPA , alongside the well-established CGPA, to truly develop students in learning and character.
