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

Prof. Haneke Brits from our Faculty of Health Sciences recently completed an international course in Palliative Care Leadership.
The Institute for Palliative Medicine, a teaching affiliate of the University of California San Diego (UCSD), awarded Prof. Brits a Diploma in International Palliative Care Leadership. She is one of only 19 people worldwide to complete this unique two-year course.
“It has been an honour to work with Prof. Brits. We know that she has made great contributions to palliative medicine during these two years. We are certain that you have seen how her leadership skills and capacities have grown,” the Institute for Palliative Medicine stated in a letter in recognition of her participation.
Prof. Brits is currently consultant and associate professor at the UFS Department of Family Medicine.
