Kwara State University (http://www.kwasu.edu.ng) was approved to function as a conventional university by the National Universities Commission (NUC). It is the 34th state university in Nigeria, and the 95th recognized by the commission. KWASU aims to be an important partner with international funding agencies, United Nations organizations, scholarly organizations, private businesses and more in the areas of community development, international peace, environmental justice in Africa, research and more. In this light, KWASU projects internal democracy in its administrative structures and allows for active involvement of staff and students in governance by instituting a principle of Shared Governance in the university. This would enable international players, including universities abroad, deal with KWASU on the basis of what they would see as KWASU’s ability to project the same scholarly rigor, internal democracy and administrative independence that are hallmarks of a twenty-first century university.
