New first-year students welcomed at the UFS
The Acting Rector and Vice Chancellor of the University of the Free State (UFS), Prof. Teuns Verschoor, has welcomed the new first-year students during a ceremony on the Main Campus in Bloemfontein today. “This new experience is an opportunity to not only make your own decisions but to develop and grow as a person. Make your mark, don’t leave a stain,” he said. Mr Eric Bost, Ambassador of the United States of America (USA) to South Africa, also addressed the students and their parents. “This is an opportunity to acquire knowledge and to make a positive difference in your lives and the lives of others,” he said. He also urged students not to judge people on their ignorance of a view but to asses others based on their character and abilities.
