On 20 October 2022, the University of the Free State (UFS) Faculty of Theology and Religion will present the distinguished Tutu-Jonker lecture in honour of the late Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Prof Willie Jonker. These two theologians are well-known in South Africa for their emphasis on reconciliation, and the series of lectures is a tribute to their reconciliatory efforts.
This will be the first in-person Tutu-Jonker lecture since COVID-19 and the passing of Archbishop Tutu. The keynote speaker, Dr Lazarus Mokobake, Chaplain in the South African Defence Force, will deliver the lecture, themed: ‘Faltering resilience – a nation in need of conciliation’.
Registrations close on 14 October 2022.

Philosophers’ Circle

A new artwork, called the Philosophers’ Circle, has been completed at our Bloemfontein Campus. The artwork is an exciting addition to the Lotto Sculpture-on-Campus Project. The Philosophers’ Circle is a collaborative mosaic project done by local artists Jaco Spies, Itumeleng Moamogwana, Loki Maselwane, Dina Grobler and Tshegofatso Marogoa. Students from our Department of Fine Arts were also involved in the project.
