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 Ambassador also met with cactus pear researchers at the UFS and developments concerning the memorandum of understanding which was signed last year between the Centre for Plant Health Management (CePHMa) at the UFS and the University of Chapingo in Mexico were also discussed. Here are, from the left, front: Ambassador Cabrera and Prof. Herman van Schalkwyk (Dean of the UFS Faculty of Natural and Agricultural Sciences); back: Chancellor Malvafòn and Prof. Wijnand Swart (Head of CePHMa at the UFS).
