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 University of the Free State (UFS) this morning celebrated the opening of the new gate at the Agriculture Building on the Main Campus in Bloemfontein. The gate, which runs out of DF Malherbe Avenue, is the third largest gate built on the Main Campus. Prof. Frederick Fourie, Rector and Vice-Chancellor of the UFS, said that the needs of the security guards who have to stand guard at the gates were taken into consideration with the design of the gates. From the left are: Mr Aggrey Litseho (Crime Investigation Officer of the UFS Protection Services Division), Mr Willie Frankim (Head of the UFS Protection Services Division) and Prof. Fourie.
