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.
UFS Alert: Switchboard out of order
2012-11-09
Due to severe weather the switchboard on the Bloemfontein Campus was damaged last night. The switchboard is currently out of order for staff (internal calls) as well as for people from outside the university (calls from outside the university that must go through the switchboard).
ICT is working to restore the switchboard. We expect that the problem should be addressed during the course of the morning.
