    abstract = {In Nigeria, cultism as a form of student unrest has assumed 
  different dimensions compared to its forms in the past. This social menace has 
  been a source of great concern among stakeholders (parents, university administrators, 
  policy makers, researchers and educational planners) in education sector. On 
  account of cult activities many students have lost their study opportunities, 
  others have died, some have been maimed and not a few were raped while some 
  are still being harassed. The existence of and the attendant nuisances which 
  this group of people have unleashed on the society have cost the country the 
  services of her well trained indigenous and expatriate staff. Though previous 
  studies have discussed this issue and have suggested various solutions to the 
  problem, the present study specifically focused on the role and the interplay 
  of the family in stemming the tide of campus cultism. It is a study that was 
  based on archival research whose discussions were clustered into 4 sub-themes, 
  namely; cult, campus and cultism, cultism on campuses: Sorrow, tears and blood, 
  parents and social control and family-school interplay.}
