It is stated in the UG that duplicate names are not allowed as unique names are used to take attendance and add grades. However, for very common names, it is possible that two or more different people can have the exact same name and surname. In such a case, it may be difficult for tutors to remember who is "John 1" and "John 2" when having to take attendance and add grades. Would it better serve the function if telegram handles or emails, which are unique identifiers, are used for uniqueness?
