The University of the Free State (UFS) has obtained an interim court order prohibiting any individuals from engaging in unlawful activities or conduct on any of its campuses.
In terms of the order, no person may amongst others:
- Participate in or promote unlawful protest action;
- Disrupt or interfere with academic or online activities;
- Block access to or from university campuses;
- Intimidate, threaten, or harass students, staff, or visitors; or
- Damage, destroy, or tamper with university property or safety equipment.
The order applies to all UFS campuses — Bloemfontein, South, and Qwaqwa — and remains in force pending the final determination of the matter.
The University urges all members of the community to respect the order and uphold a safe, conducive environment for teaching, learning, and work.
Election day 22 April 2009
2009-02-28
Due to the election being held on Wednesday, 22 April 2009, this day is a public holiday. There will therefore be no official university activities on this day.
The two graduation ceremonies that were scheduled for this day have been rescheduled for
Monday, 20 April 2009. They are respectively the graduation ceremony of the Faculty of Education (8:30) and the graduation ceremony of the Faculty of the Humanities at 14:30.
These two ceremonies as well as all the others that have been scheduled for April will be held on the South Campus (the former Vista Campus) because the Callie Human Centre is not available.
