The Department of Geography at the University of the Free State launched a special edition of the South African Geography Journal, titled A Geography of the Free State. It is the first time in the history of the Society of South African geographers that a special issue of the journal, devoted to the geography of a single province has been published. Some of the guests who attended the launch were, from the left: Prof Gustav Visser (lecturer at the Department of Geography and co-author of the special edition of the journal), Prof Teuns Verschoor (Vice-Rector: Academic Operations at the UFS), Prof Peter Holmes (Head: Department of Geography and co-author of the special edition of the journal) and Prof Herman van Schalkwyk (Dean: Faculty of Natural and Agricultural Sciences at the UFS).
