The Inauguration of the 2023 SRC took place on 16 January on main campus at Senate Hall. During the ceremony the Director of Student Affairs, Dr Matete Madiba gave a speech offering important advice about the challenges the SRC will face during their term as well as how to best manage these challenges while still balancing their university studies. After Dr Madiba’s words of encouragement, the new SRC members were sworn into office by Chief Justice Lesedi Ngubeni. Though the SRC duties only officially start on 17 January, the SRC has already been busy with registration issues as well as academic exclusions and had a full schedule of meetings with university personnel.
