It will require all staff, students, service providers and visitors to produce proof that they have been vaccinated against Covid-19 to access the campus.
“Based on an analysis of the law and information drawn from the higher education sector, it was submitted that having assessed risks, Rhodes University had a responsibility to ensure that employees and students are protected and that all the necessary precautionary measures are in place,” said the statement.
The special council meeting was convened this week as the university prepares for the full return of students and staff in 2022. The vaccination requirement also applies as a condition for registration for all students, as well as for staff working on campus, service providers and visitors, said the university.
However, the university has also made allowances for an exemption application process and for those who cannot take the vaccine on medical or other “legitimate and justifiable grounds”.
Total force of oppression by capitalist student has the right to say no ! So if I'm not vaccinated I won't be accepted no freedom in this country
