Mind Matters is a first for the UFS. It is a mental-health publication for students aimed at highlighting what matters most when it comes to your mind, life, and well-being. Some sections share how individuals in the top echelons of the UFS take care of their minds. Other sections focus on how to support your grey matter (i.e. your brain) and, consequently, improve your general functioning. Some parts discuss matters related to careers, well-being, finance, and self-development. We also provide news and resources that might matter to you.
Whatever your fancy, Mind Matters focuses primarily on why the health of your mind matters. Our minds and brains are the most powerful intelligence or apparatuses on the planet. A power like this needs to be wielded wisely, otherwise we may suffer much from our own neglect of our mental health. It’s not always easy, but it is important!
Mind Matters was possible due to the cumulative contributions, inputs, and work of numerous UFS professionals, especially within
Student Affairs. We are grateful and proud of each person involved. We endeavour to honour these efforts by continually improving and developing Mind Matters. Your feedback and voices are most welcome and will continue to inform what we do next.

The Steinhoff Residence Rugby Finals took place at the Bloemfontein Campus of the University of the Free State (UFS) last Friday. According to Mr Rocky le Roux from KovsieSport at the UFS, hostels have been playing matches since the beginning of March this year to determine who will be announced as the winner of Steinhoff Hostel Rugby.
Matches were played in four leagues on the open fields of the campus.
In the main match between Steinhoff Vishuis and Steinhoff Heimat, the scoreboard appointed Vishuis as the winner with 52 points against 13.
Steinhoff is also one of the main sponsors of the Varsity Cup.
