The Qwaqwa Campus of the University of the Free State (UFS) will reopen on 28 February 2022. The decision was made by the university management today after the campus was closed on 22 February 2022 due to violent protest action.
From 28 February 2022 to 4 March 2022, all classes will be presented online.
Students will be informed by their respective faculties about the model of academic delivery that will be followed from 7 March 2022.
The arrangement is estimated to continue for two to three weeks at the most, after which the academic programme will return to the approved teaching plans for 2022.

The Department of Afrikaans and Dutch, German and French at the University of the Free State (UFS) recently held an informal function during which recognition was given to recipients of bursaries awarded by the Suid-Afrikaanse Vereniging vir Neerlandistiek (SAVN).
This year the UFS are boasting nine bursary winners, of which six are currently busy with their third-year studies, while the other three students are busy with their honours study. According to Prof. Angelique van Niekerk, a lecturer at the department and representative of the SAVN, the bursaries are sponsored by the Nederlandse Taalunie (NTU).
Students with merit in Afrikaans and Dutch who continue their studies in the subject may apply for the bursaries at the SAVN committee countrywide. – Lize du Plessis
