The University of the Free State (UFS) offers its deepest condolences to the family and friends of the deceased student who was killed at the Durban University of Technology (DUT) during a protest action on the Steve Biko Campus on 5 February 2019.
The UFS condemns the use of firearms and undue force against protesting students.
The university’s executive management supports the plight of students at institutions of higher education around the country, encouraging the use of engagement and dialogue to resolve issues between students and university leadership at all times. We hope that these issues can be resolved amicably and to the benefit of all higher education institutions, as well as to the benefit of the country.

The Service Learning Division at the University of the Free State (UFS) recently held a staff enrichment session in the Senate Hall on the Qwaqwa Campus of the UFS. Staff members who are involved in Service Learning, or interested to learn more about it had an opportunity to share their experiences and ideas. The workshop presented an opportunity for the discovery of an academic niche through participants who demonstrated fervour in the initiation and development of more new Service Learning modules. The introduction of two separate skills enhancement programmes, HES717 and HES/FES522 endorsed prospects of a successful future for Service Learning and Community Engagement at the Qwaqwa Campus.
