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.

Some of the functions of Drama are to create a direct physical and emotional experience, to transcend knowledge at all levels, to enrich the imagination and to enthuse theatre-goers' minds and souls. Drama is therefore an influential medium for learning as well as for personal development.
For more than a decade now, the Department of Drama and Theatre Arts at the University of the Free State (UFS) has been a friend of the Welpies Day Care Centre in Oranjesig, Bloemfontein. The pre-schoolers regularly attend fantasy theatre productions free of charge.
