So, it begins

Jameson Plaza is cleaned up; the last SAX Appeal vendors have finally washed off their make-up, and the academic legion is back in its entirety.

Today, 11 February, is the day that UCT life gets back to normal - at least, as normal as a semester at a world-class university can be. Lectures and workshops begin in earnest, and students will be battling for a spot in the libraries and laboratories around the campuses.

UCT wishes students and staff a year of hard, smart work and great success. In particular, UCT wishes its first-year students a rewarding and fulfilling introduction to university life.
