Abstract
Higher education institutions as seats for higher learning are expected to maintain high standards of social integrity and embed the same in routine academic and social operations. For this it is first important to highlight the types of malpractices that negatively impact a work environment and identify their causes. Moreover, it is incumbent to seek viable solutions to ward off such degenerative practices. One of the solutions is to involve statutory bodies, develop and enforce whistleblowing policies across academic institutions so that academic or moral corruption can be unearthed and properly investigated. Moreover, such policies should safeguard the identity of the whistleblowers and provide them with all kinds of organizational protection and security. Unless appropriate policy directions underlining strict and legal actions against the wrongdoers are not in place, such misconducts will continue to taint the image and integrity of academic institutions.
