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.

Proff. Dap and Anet Louw from the Department of Psychology at the University of the Free State (UFS) recently presented copies of their most recent book Adult Development and Ageing to the Vice-Rector, Prof. Driekie Hay and the Dean of the Faculty of the Humanities, Prof. Lucius Botes. The book will also be available in Afrikaans as Die Ontwikkeling en Veroudering van die Volwassene soon. Proff. Louw is currently busy with an extensive project to render Psychology study material much more relevant to the South African context and to make the books resulting from this project available in both English and Afrikaans to students. Their goal is also to translate key terminology in future editions into more South African core languages like Sesotho. Here are, from the left: Prof. Botes, Prof. Hay and Proff. Dap and Anet Louw.
