A copy of SU's integrated annual report – as approved by Council on 18 June – was delivered to the Minister of Higher Education and Training ahead of the deadline of 30 June. The rest of the print run arrived at SU during July (copies available from CCD), and a PDF version has been available on the annual report page of the University's website since June (click here).

The report is a rich source of validated information on how SU manages to be a responsible corporate citizen that is mindful of its impact on society, the economy and the natural environment.

“Although the 2017 report deals mainly with the activities of the past year, we also look further back in time with a view to our commemoration of one hundred years as a university in 2018. Do read this report – it is accessible and will make you proud to have a connection with SU," the Editor, Mattie van der Merwe, said.

“We honour SU's pioneers by placing each of their portraits next to those of the current management. A raised bar in faculty colours appears on the right-hand pages as a symbol of our pursuit of excellence in all our core activities. The statistics in the report have also been marked with these colours throughout to show how far the faculties and administrative divisions have come in achieving the University's strategic goals (see p. 7 of the Annual Integrated Report 2017)."
