As you are aware, we are facing challenging times, when public funding for higher education is declining, while students demand no fee increases or no fees at all. Universities are caught in a financial pincer, which we have to transcend without compromising academic quality.

We are increasingly reliant on your support to attract and retain talented, innovative academics and students; to offer more scholarships to disadvantaged students with academic potential; to support the research and teaching activities of our university; to update our technology and equipment; and to maintain and develop our facilities and infrastructure.

Your support assists us in ensuring that Wits remains financially sustainable and at the cutting edge of higher education on the continent and globally. Your support also boosts us in our You, our donors, supporters critical role of helping to build a strong, stable, democratic, and investors, are the internationalised society in a country dealing with profound mainsail of our university. socio-political problems, unemployment and complex issues of You have consistently been decolonisation and transformation. there for us, helping to sustain We are currently required to make hard financial trade-offs that and advance our globally are not simply managerial and strategic; they are also ethical competitive university. and moral. They include being firm about keeping campus safe and functioning, while proactively addressing inequality in South African society, contributing to job creation and overcoming the capacity constraints that are limiting Africa’s economic growth.

In so many ways, Wits has an inestimable role to play in shaping the future of South Africa and the continent. It matters that we engage on issues of freedom and justice. It matters that our communities are ably served by Wits-trained professionals – health professionals, teachers, entrepreneurs, artists, social workers, engineers, accountants, lawyers, IT innovators, environmental scientists, physicists and all the other graduates we produce. It matters that Wits academics contribute globally to relevant research on everything from TB and HIV to climate change, sustainable societies, and the origins of the universe.

Wits matters and we need to find the resources to educate our young people and nurture the best minds on the continent by providing an outstanding education in all the disciplines that we offer. At the same time we need to provide the funding, environment and infrastructure for novel, globally relevant research. At Wits we believe these requirements are mutually inclusive and absolutely necessary in a globalised and globally competitive university environment.

We are ambitious about our teaching, research and impact on a global scale, and I believe that we – our staff and students – and you – our friends, alumni, and supporters – are a powerful community, which, together, can achieve extraordinary breakthroughs and find solutions to the challenges that impact our societies, our environment and our world.

2016 WITS SRC SUPPORTS THE MISSING MIDDLE

Approximately 10% of Wits students are National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) beneficiaries. However, a significant number of our students do not qualify for NSFAS because they are part of what is known as the ‘missing middle’. These students are from families whose incomes are above the NSFAS threshold but they are unable to afford university fees.Their household income ranges from about R120 000 per annum to approximately R400 000 per annum.

Responding to this, the SRC of 2015/2016 launched the Wits “We have been working with Wits to find a sustainable SRC Humanitarian fund, known as the #Access campaign. funding solution for higher education in South Africa. “The ‘missing middle’ are students referred to as being We are committed to continue this work with Wits and other APPRECIATIVE ‘too poor to be rich and too rich to be poor’,” said SRC stakeholders.

In June 2005 he was knighted in recognition of his services to the arts and business. He has an Honorary Doctorate in Economic Science from Wits.

Gordon’s legacy continues to make a considerable impact in South Africa through the Wits Donald Gordon Medical Centre (WDGMC) and the Donald Gordon Auditorium at the Wits School of Governance – the leading regional institution in the arena of governance, policy and development management for the public sector.

“The WDGMC is the first private teaching hospital in South Africa and Wits is the only university in South Africa that owns its own hospital. We offer specialist and sub-specialist training, which is critical for South Africa with its shortage of medical experts,” says Dr Sue Tager, neurologist and CEO of the WDGMC since 2008.

With the funds from the Gordon donation, Wits was able to purchase the Kenridge THE PHILLIP TOBIAS Hospital in 2002, with Mediclinic, the international private hospital group, EDUCATION TRUST becoming a 49.9% shareholder in 2005. “We train specialists and sub-specialists in association with state hospitals, and Professor Phillip Valentine Tobias spent over 60 years of his life at Wits, and provide training in sub-specialist disciplines that were not available before in South passed away in 2012.

South African Higher Education Institutions. merSETA will support this programme by finding employment for BSc Engineering students who have completed their second year. They will spend one year with host employers, and then join the academic stream again for third and fourth year. merSETA strongly supports the placement of students in companies at an intermediate stage of their academic engineering programmes, to achieve some experiential exposure to professional practice. It is prepared to pay approximately R64 800 per student to incentivise this process.
