Students and staff can now get vaccinated on all three campuses of the University of the Free State.

For the month of October, Clicks Pharmacy will be doing vaccinations ( Johnson and Johnson) on the Bloemfontein Campus for staff and students. Clicks Pharmacy staff will be available on the campus in EXR 1(enter from the basketball courts), next to the screening site, on Wednesdays from 09:00 to 13:00. 

The following should be noted: 
• The COVID-19 vaccine will be administered free of charge.
• You can speed up the process by registering on the COVID-19 Vaccination Programme registration portal before you get to the vaccination site. Staff will be on stand-by to register those who have not yet done so.  
• Please bring positive identification, such as an ID book or driver’s licence.
• You will receive proof of your first vaccination via a vaccine card.

In addition to the vaccination site at the Universitas Academic Hospital in Bloemfontein, staff and students can also get vaccinated on the Qwaqwa and South campuses. Take note that the Qwaqwa Campus vaccination site is open on Wednesdays only.

Theological ethics can demonstrate integrity in research development
2008-05-29

Prof. Laetus O.K. Lategan (pictured) recently delivered his inaugural lecture as Professor Extraordinary at the University of the Free State (UFS) in Bloemfontein. His subject was "The truth falters on campus: The contribution of the Theological ethics to the search for a professional ethic in research" where he emphasized the role of theological ethics in research development. He stressed the fact that the demonstration of a university's commitment to professional ethical behaviour in research can be via a code of ethics in which the university pronounces its standards for research. He said it is important to create an environment in which a professional ethic is not regarded as a personal achievement but rather as a life orientation. Prof. Lategan is currently the Dean of Research and Development at the Central University of Technology (CUT) where he takes managerial responsibility for research development.
