9 March 2017
Pretoria – The student movement has turned a new page at the University of Pretoria, with its Student Representative Council (SRC) taking to the streets on Thursday to beg for funds to help those with historic debt.
Student leaders from all races dressed in their student blazers and stood in the middle of Lynnwood Street to raise money for their peers.
Interim SRC deputy chairperson Thabo Shingange said they had decided to change the narrative of the Fees Must Fall movement.
"The idea of today forms part and parcel with a broader fundraising drive, the UP SRC fund. The aim of this particular fund is to raise awareness of the funding crisis in institutions of higher learning.
