Seventeen years of friendship, with four degrees among them. This is what friends Eduan du Plessis, Johanco Viljoen, Louis van der Walt, and Thinus Greyling celebrated during the University of the Free State’s April graduation ceremony. The four friends – who started their academic careers together at Grey Pre-Primary in 2006 and matriculated at Grey College in 2018 – obtained qualifications during the graduation ceremonies of the faculties of Natural and Agricultural Sciences and Economic and Management Sciences.
Odeion School of Music launched
2011-09-20
Our Odeion School of Music was launched at the first Dean’s Concert in the Odeion on our Bloemfontein Campus on Friday, 16 September 2011.
The former Department of Music, in our Faculty of Humanities, has been transformed and will henceforth be known as the Odeion School of Music (OSM). This follows in the path of the corporate transition currently taking place at the university, which aims to reflect the progressive and dynamic striving towards excellence, as endorsed by our Vice-Chancellor and Rector, Prof. Jonathan Jansen, and his management group.
