Hi all, we’ve learned rather late (profound apologies) that the UCT Council elections close today, 23 April at 4pm. This is an opportunity for those of us who are UCT graduates to help keep the university on track towards meeting its divestment commitment.
• If you have not yet voted but received an email notification from convocationelection@uct.ac.za, then you can vote.
• To vote, go here.
• Login using the email address at which you received the convocation election notification, and as password, your birthdate in the format DDDDMMYY.
• Please vote for Bronwyn Nortje amongst your choices; we know she supports divestment and a strong climate agenda for the university.
• Full list of candidate profiles here.
• Besides Bronwyn, we also suggest Russell Ally, Simphiwe Sobuwa, Vuyane Mhlomi, and Edward Maloka. We have not canvassed these individuals in any way.
Many thanks!
