Watch | Rhodes University Marks 120 Years of Academic and Cultural Milestones

This year, Rhodes University proudly commemorates a remarkable journey of 120 years. A beacon of knowledge in South Africa, the university has been instrumental in shaping the nation's academic and cultural landscape.

The year-long celebration, dubbed RU120, is not merely a commemoration but also a clarion call to address pressing issues such as student debt. It is a time for reflection, celebration, and mobilisation, as the university continues to uphold its commitment to excellence and leadership.

Throughout 2024, Rhodes University will host a series of events that will look to inspire the next generation of leaders. These events will not only highlight the university's achievements but will also set the stage for new advancements and successes.

Rhodes University's 120th anniversary is more than a milestone; it is a testament to the enduring power of education and the relentless pursuit of knowledge.

We will be capturing it all for you here on News24’s RU120 hub.
