The Council of Stellenbosch University (SU) held its first of four scheduled meetings for the year on Tuesday 13 April 2021. As in December 2020, we again met in hybrid mode, with some members gathering on campus (observing all COVID-19 protocols) and others participating online.
SU did extremely well in trying circumstances last year, having completed
the 2020 academic year successfully despite a rapid switch to online mode when contact tuition was suspended nationwide in March. In the end, no fewer than 9 079
qualifications were awarded to students from all backgrounds, including 270 doctoral degrees – among the highest of all universities in South Africa.
