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
Students and management pray for campus

About 35 black and white students from the University of the Free State spontaneously formed a circle in front of the Main Building of the Main Campus in Bloemfontein late afternoon on Thursday 28 February 2008 to pray for the university in view of the extremely offensive and racist video that surfaced during the week and caused world-wide reaction. The students were joined by the Rector and Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Frederick Fourie, and other members of the top management who were busy with a meeting at the time. The group was interdenominational and the students hugged each other afterwards.
