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
State of our campuses: Academic activities suspended on UFS Bloemfontein Campus
2016-09-19
All academic activities on the Bloemfontein Campus of the University of the Free State (UFS) have been suspended with immediate effect –- including tests and lectures. This decision by the senior leadership comes after a growing unease on campus resulting from this morning’s announcement on tuition fees by Minister Blade Nzimande, Minister of Higher Education and Training. A further announcement about the continuation of the academic programme for the rest of the week will be made by 20:00 this evening.
Regular updates will be available on the UFS website, UFS Twitter and Facebook platforms.
