By: Lehlohonolo Tau

Student Dean of the Free State University held a discussion with students regarding the Student Interim Committee which was selected after the disbandment of the SRC. He says reasons for the disbandment of the student Parliament was the continued fuelling of racial conflict and disunity in the Varsity. However, students say, this committee is not representative of the majority of students and that the forum was not democratically selected. He concluded that the forum will come to an end as soon as consensus is reached between students and management.
