About Capri

Capri is the newest co-ed addition to the PSO structure of Stellenbosch University. Established in 2018,  we began with 12 house committee members, 24 mentors and 250 newcomers.  Today  we have 11 house committee members, 13 seniors committee members, 23 mentors and have grown to 1812 members.  As the new kids on the block, our  vision is to make our campus a more open and accepting space to allow innovation through diversity within our interconnected spheres.     

Capri's vision and mission

Capri strives to be a community that creates a sense of belonging where everyone is comfortable to express themselves, their values, and perspectives. Additionally, we are committed to  providing opportunities to make meaningful connections within the broader community. We aim to foster strong leaders by offering a large variety of leadership development opportunities and co-curricular activities while striving for innovation through diverse collaboration. All of this allows each individual in our community to broaden their horizons to become global citizens who can make a positive impact in society. 

Capri's values

Innovation: Creating new ideas to distinguish us from the rest of Campus. Capri takes pride in our ability to adjust our thinking and to merge that with the values of SU, being able to adjust to change. Keeping traditions that are beneficial to the community and changing those that cause harm.

Ubuntu: I am because we are. Capri is a diverse PSO, filled with people of various backgrounds, personalities, orientations, religions and ethnicities, each with a unique perspective and bringing something different and valuable to the table. We promote understanding and compassion to encourage togetherness.

Trots: At Capri we encourage our members to take pride in the good. Having pride in themselves and in Capri. To always strive to be better. Creating those "Hoendervleis-oomblikke" (goosebumps moment).
