'Academic programmes for students at all the TUT campuses have been closed with immediate effect, until further notice.'

"Academic programmes for students at all the TUT campuses have been closed with immediate effect, until further notice," said university spokesperson Willa de Ruyter.

"The decision follows ongoing and often violent student protest action at TUT campuses since Monday March 4. Since there will not be any services available at on-campus residences and because management is concerned about the welfare of our students, they are therefore required to vacate residences for their own safety.

TUT said in a statement on Tuesday that students were protesting over National Student Financial Aid Scheme meal allowances.
