Prominent members of Stellenbosch University's convocation have distanced themselves from a call for the resignation of Professor Wim de Villiers, the vice-chancellor, made by four members of the convocation's five-member executive committee. De Villiers is under fire after it emerged that he had used his discretionary right to secure a place for his wife's nephew in the university's medical school. Newton-King has since announced that De Villiers admitted to assisting a second family member to be placed at Stellenbosch. Stellenbosch University convocation up in arms over instruction not to share motion of no confidence in VC
In a letter to Newton-King, the concerned group said it noted with deep concern the executive of the convocation's request that De Villiers and Retief resign from their respective positions. The convocation said it was calling for a formal investigation into the allegations against De Villiers and Retief to establish the facts of the nepotism allegations before a motion of no confidence could be voted on.
MaliDayimani If Jansen distances himself, you know that getting this guy to resign would be best for the University.
MaliDayimani Agree he must go
MaliDayimani Prof ensures his wife’s nephew gets admitted to SU medical school because without his intervention, due to race quotas, he probably wouldn’t get in. He happily endorses and enforces racial admission policies in the name of “transformation” until it affects his own family.
MaliDayimani Then he should do the noble thing and fall on his own sword.
MaliDayimani All of them ANC members?
