Academic activities resume at University of Venda

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Academic activities have resumed at the University of Venda after student protests that started four weeks ago.

Students were demanding NSFAS allowances to cover the cost of food, off-campus living and transport fees.

Students have mixed feelings about the end of the boycott.

One student says: “I feel good and I feel great because we are back in classes and most of the students received their allowances.”

Another student had this to say: “I can not say I feel good because as a poor black student I depend on my allowance and I haven’t received it but other students have already received theirs.”
