TWO CAMPUSES NOW HAVE BEEN SHUT DOWN: EAST LONDON MAIN CAMPUS, POTSDAM AND NELSON MANDELA DRIVE, UMTATA
This photograph of a burning car was taken in WSU East London, Potsdam Campus during the student protest. They burnt school car and the Old Residence.
The only reason for the protest involves the same old NSFAS together with the residence allocation which is the main issue in both these 2 campuses. Other issues include the Accademically excluded students, and Special cases students.
This is bad for the education of a black child as classes have been put on pause because of this.
The police are said to be all over the Potsdam campus and are cruelly removing students from the Campus.
The photo alongside was taken today 08 March 2018 by the students who are being forced to leave the school premises with immediate effect.
I do not know where this will lead us, this is the time we are supposed to be using for our future but it looks like our needs have been put on hold by those who are supposed to lead us.
Our voices are taken for granted, when are we going to study if things continue this way?
#PoorBlackChild
We need to be saved from this, this is getting us nowhere.

oh god please do something!!!
ReplyDeletewe are losing the first term of the year because of this, no academic activities have taken place ever since we opened. i don`t know what to say no more.
i just pray that no one gets hurt
#lord save WSU
This is just frustrating!!! We now have loads of work expected for us to finish by our selves at home!
ReplyDeleteIf only they could improve the system for allocations and everything we would be learning without any distractions. Walter Sisulu University has now turned to being UNISA!
Why we have to burn school properties if we want to be heard. WSU is just something else now, I don't encourage anyone to study here its just waste of time.
ReplyDeleteTo be frank, I'm so sick and tired of these varsity closing down all the time. It has became some sort of entertainment now, we are here to pursue our dreams and this is standing in the way of that!
ReplyDeleteIt seems to be the new "normality" eWSU. They seem to not get that we're here for one reason only, which is to only persue our dreams qha!!
DeletePeople need to learn that violence does and has never solved any issue. This is just a waste of our educational time and it's becoming a norm for the students of this institute to strike whenever there is a disagreement. Something has to be done and fast!.
ReplyDeleteStrike is not a solution!!!....It's been decades now since WSU started striking whenever there's an issue but that has never worked..The management at large and the SRC members need to change the way of doing things otherwise the quality of education at WSU will continue to decrease...the sad thing is that our professions will not be recognised in the business world.....
ReplyDeleteGuys I really don't see a need for students to vandalise school property because it won't solve their problems instead it will make things worse.
ReplyDeleteVandalising school's property won't change anything. Now we already wasted 2 weeks.
ReplyDeleteStrike has become the culture of Walter Sisulu University. This consume time and it is affecting the students that are doing semester courses. Workload becomes too much for lecturers and students after all this.
ReplyDeleteStriking is time consuming and for me WSU doesn't seems as a University at all....it has become a College. What kind of University that strike 3 times a year? Surely some of those student who start a strike don't like to accomplish their dreams without starting a strike.
ReplyDeleteThis striking thing ruin our future. ...we are failing not because we aren't capable of passing but because we don't have time
