The university has decided to implement a new policy in the upcoming academic session that mandates all students to renew their biometric identity cards every six months which requires physical presence of the students. This was done due to limited use of resources by alumni. What effect will this policy have?

Possible Effects:

I. The policy will have a positive effect on both academic performance and engagement, as it will motivate the students to attend classes regularly, interact with their peers and instructors and take the benefit of the available resources.

II. The policy will have a negative effect on both academic performance and engagement, as it will create an unnecessary burden and hassle for the students, especially those who live far away or have other commitments.
