Gender-based violence is generally a major concern in the country and the university in particular. Kovsies have a zero-tolerance towards any acts of violence.
We encourage the UFS community to break the silence so that perpetrators are brought to book. To abusers, we say: stop the violence! One of our students opens up about her experience in the video below.
We encourage others to Report gender-based violence, Sexual Harassment and any act of prejudice or discrimination to the Sexual Assault Response Team on
+27 51 401 7777 or
+27 0 80 020 4682 (24 hour toll free).

The Department of Afrikaans and Dutch, German and French recently held a Language Day Festival to coincide with the National Language Day. The purpose of the festival was for staff members to have language-related fun around a typical braaivleis with traditional boerewors and a Dutch stroopwafel. Staff members were treated to, amongst other activities: Afrikaans, Dutch, German and French music, a DVD about the translation project by Prof. Naomi Morgan, and a short drama. Pictured are staff members of the department performing in a drama as part of the days festivities.
