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.

The UFS’s Qwaqwa Campus will be hosting the inaugural Morena Paulus Mopeli Mokhachane Memorial Lecture on Saturday 6 September 2014 at 10:00 in the Rolihlahla Mandela Hall.
The theme for the lecture is 'Embracing Traditional Leadership in South Africa' and will be delivered by Dr Nyefolo Malete from the Department of African Languages.
As part of the lecture, UFS students have already entered the essay- and poetry-writing competitions where the theme is explored from different writing angles. The lecture will be preceded by a schools public speaking contest centred on the theme.
The event will be hosted in partnership with the Mopeli Royal Family and the Free State House of Traditional Leaders.
