In the interest of the safety of the staff and students at the University of the Free State (UFS), the Executive Management assessed the current situation on the three campuses and made the following resolutions:
1. The Qwaqwa Campus is closed with immediate effect, and students are requested to leave the campus within the next 24 hours.
2. The Executive Management Committee extends an invitation to the Student Representative Councils (SRCs) of all three campuses to further engagement.
3. On the Bloemfontein and South Campuses, all lectures are suspended until further notice; however, only limited movement will be allowed on campus from 19:00 in the evening until 07:00 in the morning.
A fluffy white blanket is bringing the chills to our Qwaqwa Campus

Just when we thought the worst of the winter chills were over, a new blanket of snow has turned our Qwaqwa Campus in the Eastern Free State into a winter wonderland.
Staff and students on the Qwaqwa Campus have had to brave the cold on Monday and instead of making snowmen, had to attend classes and go about their daily duties. The freezing weather unfortunately also had a negative impact on people hoping to visit the campus and surrounding areas, as several roads were closed due to the snowfall.
