Higher Education South Africa (HESA) met today at the University of the Free State (UFS) for its quarterly meeting. Twenty two vice-chancellors from universities across South Africa met in the Main Building of the UFS. The meeting, which normally takes place in Johannesburg, was moved to Bloemfontein to give the vice-chancellors the opportunities to attend the first Moshoeshoe Memorial Lecture that will be presented on the UFS campus tonight.

At the meeting were from the left: Dr Theuns Eloff (Vice-Chancellor North-West University and Deputy Chairperson of HESA), Dr Rolf Stumpf (Vice-Chancellor of the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University, Prof Njabulo Ndebele (Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cape Town), Prof Barney Pityana (Vice-Chancellor of UNISA and Chairperson of HESA) and Prof Frederick Fourie (Rector and Vice-Chancellor of the UFS).
