Stellenbosch University is making steady progress towards transformation, its rector and vice-chancellor Wim de Villiers believes. He speaks to James de Villiers about why the university won't be reviewing its language policy despite a recent recommendation by Justice Sisi Khampepe, why he doesn't regret becoming rector despite being "mercilessly" attacked, and how his medical career prepared him for the job.
Stellenbosch University rector and vice-chancellor Wim de Villiers, 63, says, unfortunately, urination incidents will happen at the university again.
The university made headlines in May when Theuns du Toit was caught on camera urinating on first-year student Babalo Ndwayana's desk, laptop and books at Huis Marais men's residence.
