UFS gives clarity on disciplinary action against students
2008-03-04
There seems to be some uncertainty about the course of the internal disciplinary steps the University of the Free State (UFS) is now taking against two current students in connection with the production of an extremely offensive and racist video which came to light last week.
Here is an explanation of the disciplinary steps:
The university’s legal representatives yesterday informed the student’s legal representatives that they are in the process of compiling a charge sheet against the two students. This was done in writing and no meetings took place between the lawyers.
The university’s legal representatives are in the process of compiling a charge sheet. When this charge sheet is finalised, it will be made available to the students’ legal representatives.
The Rector and Vice-Chancellor of the UFS, Prof. Frederick Fourie, is in the process of appointing a disciplinary committee.
Once the charge sheet has reached the students’ legal representatives, a date for the hearing will be arranged.
The criminal charges against the four students will be dealt with by the South African Police Service (SAPS).
