THE INCREASING RATE OF ABSENTEEISM AMONG UNIVERSITY STUDENTS

            Absenteeism happen at all level. It has also become a menace that spread vigorously among universities students. Absenteeism in university can be defined as the escape from the responsibilities or duties such as lecture and tutorial without any leave. As university students, they are expected to be matured, independent and able to think and decide what is best for them as they hold the highest hope of their family and community to bring glory to the country and the family in future. However the increasing rate of absenteeism among universities students at the present time is serious concern. Therefore, absenteeism in university is not a small matter and it has to be dealt with at all cost. There are many factors that lead to the increasing of rate of the absenteeism among universities students, these include the students attitudes, the environmental condition and also the parents behaviours themselves.
            It’s a fact that the student themselves are the main contributor to the increasing rate of absenteeism in the university. They take things for granted and developed a bad attitude toward their study. University students are usually among the teenagers. At this level their eagerness to enjoy life and have fun is at its maximum. They are in a dilemma between studies and enjoyments. They do not want to be tied up with lectures, assignments, deadlines and pressures. They are faced with a tough decision. Being on their own and away from the parents they always take the wrong decision which gives them a minute of enjoyment and a lifetime misery. Once the decision is made they would escape lectures and tutorial and provide excuses for their absenteeism. Laziness is another  factor  which contributed to the issue. This usually happen in the morning, especially among the boys. They prefer to get more sleep than get up to go to class. Other than that , the procrastination habits makes them have to stay up late at night doing homework and settling up assignment in the eleventh hour also can lead to this matter  as it usually can cause drowsiness in the morning. The drowsiness can make the students loss focus and emotionally imbalance to attend lectures and tutorial thus contributing to the absenteeism. In addition, some of students with low achievement, they tend to escape from the class when they can hardly deal with the subject. This consequently add to this matter.
            Beside that, the environmental condition is also believed to affect one part as place of crime. The environmental condition that is uncomfortable too crowded with people or the imperfect infrastructures in the universities can also affect the students convenient to study. They chose to look for a more convenient than sitting in the lecture hall without the comfort and not fully focused ahead. This usually happen to the high achiever that need full concentration. These should be taken seriously and sufficiently addressed by the university in way to maintain the excellence of the students.
            Though, parents as one of the contributors to the increasing rate of absenteeism in the universities cannot be overlooked. Busy working leads to lack of concern and focus to the children’s education. Some felt that if the children can continue their studies to universities is enough for them to give up responsibility towards their children’s education. As for the children, the parents’ lack of concern towards their studies provides an opportunity for them to be uncertain to take for granted the importance of education. Thus, causing them to not hesitate a bit to absenteeism. More to the point, there are some parents who pamper their children by providing too much wealth, freedom and trust. These effects by causing the children tend to ignore the education and rummaging fun.
            None the less, the government are serious in tackling this issue as it has so much impact on the wellbeing of the nation building. Substantial sum of money are spent each year to provide financial assistance to the student to study in universities locally and abroad. As the student is not the sole contributor to this problem, it is the responsibility of all group to jointly find a way to handle this crisis. If the menace of absenteeism is not put to rest, all the effort and money are put to waste. The country’s vision 2020 to create a strong community with the high moral and values would remain a dream. Everyone has their role in achieving the country’s dream and aspiration. Don’t ask what the country can do for you but what you can do for the country.
