more clarity on the situation recently that council will recommend that the
Wilgenhof residence be closed. The university added that it assures parents, students
and staff that it will continue its commitment to being a welcoming and inclusive
university.
“Alternative uses of the

will revert in due course on the other recommendations in the report, amongst
them the recommendations that could be embedded in the Committee for the Institutional
