When Stellenbosch University (SU) commemorated our Centenary in 2018, we celebrated great achievements and groundbreaking discoveries. We saluted the more than 250 000 alumni and students, academics and lecturers, researchers and professional and administrative support staff, as well as our management and governance structures who have helped to mould this institution and cement its reputation as a world-class academic institution. We also acknowledged our contribution to injustices of the past through our Restitution Statement.
