UFS and National Museum sign memorandum of agreement
2006-08-31
A memorandum of agreement was signed between the University of the Free State (UFS) and the National Museum. In the agreement the two institutions give each other access to the education and research facilities of the other in the natural and humanities sciences. Although informal co-operation agreements have existed between the UFS and the National Museum for a while, this is the first time that a formal agreement was signed.

During the signing of the agreement were from the left: Mr Rick Nuttall (Director of the National Museum), Prof Magda Fourie (Vice-Rector: Academic Planning at the UFS), Ms Kelebone Mokuena (council member of the National Museum) and Rev Kiepie Jaftha (Chief Director: Community Service at the UFS and member of the National Museum's council).
