Abstract
Concerns about academic integrity in Institutions of higher learning remain critical and the purpose of this study. We examined Kaduna Polytechnic’s experience in controlling misconduct like examination malpractice and sexual abuse. A mixed methods design was employed. Findings indicated reliance on policy, proctors, committees, advocacy and punishment rather than prevention.
