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.
Third in a row for Shimlas
2011-10-03
The Shimlas won the plate segment of the National Club Championship on Friday in Stellenbosch for a third consecutive year. Our university's rugby team triumphed over the team of Roses United with a score of 48-26 in the final.
Kovsies's eighth man, Erik le Roux, scored two of the Shimlas' tries. Le Roux was also named as the man of the match.
The Shimlas will now focus on remaining on top of the Cheetah League's log in Bloemfontein. The final term at Kovsies will also be used to prepare for the 2012 FNB Varsity Cup.
