With the second semester well underway, you may feel overwhelmed by the academic pressure and you aren’t sure how to find your way out of this maze. Some first-years are still trying to cope with the hectic academic workload, and our soon to be graduates are contemplating how they will find their feet in the post-university world.

The new edition of Kovsie Advice by the Advising Team in the Centre for Teaching and Learning (CTL) would like to help you get ready for the busy academic times ahead. But they would also like to dedicate this edition to helping you align your tasks and efforts with the end goal – that dream job!

In this edition, ideas and resources are shared to help you align your academic journey with your career aspirations.

Enjoy the journey!

Who, secretly, wouldn’t love to be a king or a queen? Two Kovsies were recently awarded exactly these titles. Lizelle Serfontein, a first-year medical student from Soetdoring residence, was chosen as Rag Queen 2014/15. Cameron Maree, a second-year BCom Accounting student and resident of House Karee, now owns the title of Mr Rag.

These two students have triumphed over nine other finalists in their respective competitions and will serve as charity ambassadors for the university. They share prizes to the value of R800 000 with their fellow finalists.
