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 Faculty of Theology has handed over a cheque of R4 300 to the No Student Hungry campaign. Prof. Francois Tolmie, the Dean of the faculty, says it is important to him and his staff that students do not go hungry. The amount is made up of donations from staff in the faculty.
René Pelser from Student Affairs, who handed over the cheque, says the university’s aim is to collect 200 000 “bites” this year (a “bite” equals one meal for a student). Others on campus who have contributed are Veritas and Accommodation Services. Kovsie Culture is to launch projects to collect funds.
Staff, faculties and departments can contact René on x9087 if they want to contribute to the NSH campaign.
