Kovsies #FaceOfFacebook was born from the need to communicate with students, and thus become a virtual friend. Yearly auditions are held to choose the new face representing the UFS on Facebook. The successful candidate holds the title of #FaceOfFacebook for the next 12 months, attending events, and filming short video clips to post on our Facebook page.
Here are our top six:
- Cayley Ann Butcher (http://on.fb.me/1CNKzLj)
- Nompumelelo Maseko (http://on.fb.me/1NwWMPD)
- Thandiwe Nku (http://on.fb.me/1z9AwiW)

The next phase of our #FaceOfFacebook auditions involves you. Go to the UFS Facebook page to view the videos of our Top Six contestants, and like your favourite. Each like will count as a vote.
And, in the words of one of our contestants: "Do the right thing; tell a friend to tell a friend that Kovsies' #FaceOfFacebook is on again."
Deadline for voting is 16 April 2015 at 16:00.
