Every year, the Active Civic Teaching Office (ACT) at the University of the Free State runs the Big Give campaign to raise food, money to buy food, and other forms of assistance for needy students. This year is no different. ACT’s big project is raising money for sanitary pads for students on all three campuses. The project will run throughout Women’s Month, August 2021. Providing menstrual hygiene products to female students empower them to continue their studies in comfort.
Karen Scheepers, Assistant Director: Kovsie Support Services, said: “This year, one of the challenges that have been highlighted is the lack of sanitary wear for students. Therefore, we focus our Big Give campaign this year on addressing this challenge that students are experiencing.”
Be part of the Big Give campaign by donating sanitary pads or money towards this initiative. Donation boxes are ready for donations at all the entrance gates of all three campuses. Your donation will go a long way in helping a deserving student.

The Faculty of Health Sciences at the University of the Free State (UFS) has launched two guiding documents for medical students for the years 2000 (phase one) and 2004 (phase two). The faculty has been offering a five-year M.B.Ch.B degree since 2000 and subsequently revised the curriculum in 2004 to comply with international developments. As a result, guiding documents detailing the academic and administrative regulations for each phase were compiled. At the launch were, from the left, front: Dr Brenda de Klerk (Phase I chairperson), Prof Elsa de Wet (Phase II chairperson) and Prof Laurika van der Westhuizen (Programme Director); back from left: Prof Gert van Zyl (Head: School of Medicine) and Dr Hennie Geyer (Phase II chairperson)
