Disruption of academic activities occurred on the Bloemfontein, South, and Qwaqwa campuses of the University of the Free State (UFS) on 1 and 2 August 2023.
The university management is aware that the protest action has impacted our students’ academic programme, as well as academic and support service activities on the campuses.
Here is a message to staff and students from Prof Francis Petersen, Vice-Chancellor and Principal of the UFS, about the events of the past two days: https://vimeo.com/kovsies/fromthevc

A partnership between the University of the Free State (UFS) and SUN MeDIA Bloemfontein, a company of AFRICAN SUN MeDIA Holdings, was recently launched on the Main Campus in Bloemfontein. SUN MeDIA is established as an academic publishing company. This company also has a digital printing and binding plant for on-demand production of books and other products. SUN MeDIA’s technology makes it possible to publish niche and specialist research titles that would probably not have been published in the traditional publishing environment.
