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.
UFS Alert: Switchboard out of order
2012-11-09
Due to severe weather the switchboard on the Bloemfontein Campus was damaged last night. The switchboard is currently out of order for staff (internal calls) as well as for people from outside the university (calls from outside the university that must go through the switchboard).
ICT is working to restore the switchboard. We expect that the problem should be addressed during the course of the morning.
