Dear students and staff
The Institutional Committee for Business Continuity (ICBC) of Stellenbosch University (SU) held an extraordinary meeting on
18 January 2021 to urgently consider the way forward this year in light of recent amendments to the national coronavirus regulations. Feedback on the most important decisions follows below.
In the main, three sets of issues informed our deliberations – the input of our Medical Advisory Committee, government regulations as announced by the President as well as the Department and Minister responsible for higher education, and the goals of our university.
Let me start with the latter. As was the case last year, our overarching goals for 2021 are to complete the academic year successfully and to ensure the sustainability of the University, while at the same time prioritising the health and safety of our staff and students.
