Pugh speaks at Law opening

Graduate Lewis Pugh, aka the human polar bear, spoke at the Faculty of Law's "official" opening of the academic year recently. Pugh recalled his time at UCT, his after-lecture swims off Robben Island, and how his father had fired his imagination with stories of great explorers. He also told students of the changes he had witnessed - first-hand - in oceans around the world over 20 years. "I dream of coming back to this faculty in five years and seeing environmental lawyers being churned out," he urged. "I dream of a world that is safe, beautiful and sustainable."
