GENERAL INFORMATION 1 GENERAL INFORMATION Historical Sketch Founded as the South African College in 1829, the University was established as the University of Cape Town in 1918. The institution established in Cape Town in 1829 was a boys’ school that aimed to provide higher education as well. The early history was one of great expectations and hard times, and it was not until the early years of the twentieth century that the University-to-be developed into a fully-fledged tertiary institution. University status was conferred in 1918. A significant and pioneering development in the 19th century was the admission of women as degree students in 1886, many years ahead of most universities in the world. During the first quarter of the 20th century the institution absorbed the post-matriculation classes of the Diocesan College, the teacher training classes of the Normal College, Cape Town, the South African College of Music and the Cape Town Schools of Fine Art and of Architecture. The Medical School was established, and in the 1920s the University began a partnership with the local health authority (now the Provincial Government’s health department) that saw the Medical School move from the Hiddingh Campus and the Green Point Somerset Hospital to Observatory and the construction of the first Groote Schuur Hospital on a University site; the partnership continues to this day and now involves not only Groote Schuur as a teaching hospital but Red Cross and Valkenberg

  • Former Fellows Biographical Index Part
    Former Fellows of The Royal Society of Edinburgh 1783 – 2002 Biographical Index Part Two ISBN 0 902198 84 X Published July 2006 © The Royal Society of Edinburgh 22-26 George Street, Edinburgh, EH2 2PQ BIOGRAPHICAL INDEX OF FORMER FELLOWS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF EDINBURGH 1783 – 2002 PART II K-Z C D Waterston and A Macmillan Shearer This is a print-out of the biographical index of over 4000 former Fellows of the Royal Society of Edinburgh as held on the Society’s computer system in October 2005. It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.

In this paper a brief summary will be given about the historical development of geomagnetism as a science in southern Africa and particularly the role played by Hermanus Magnetic Observatory in this regard. From a very modest beginning in 1841 as a recording station at the Cape of Good Hope, Hermanus Magnetic Observatory is today part of the South African National Space Agency (SANSA), where its geomagnetic field data are extensively used in international research projects ranging from the physics of the geo-dynamo to studies of the near-Earth space environment. 1 Introduction Keetmanshoop enable studies of secular variation patterns over southern Africa and the influence of the South Atlantic The requirements of navigation during the era of explo- Magnetic Anomaly (e.g. Pavón-Carasco and De Santis, ration, rather than any scientific interest in geomagnetism, 2016) on the characteristics of the global geomagnetic prompted the recording of geomagnetic field components field.

  • Our Journey to Bring the SKA to Africa OUR JOURNEY to BRING the SKA to AFRICA
    AFRICAN JOURNEY Our journey to bring the SKA to Africa OUR JOURNEY TO BRING THE SKA TO AFRICA “When South Africa became involved in the SKA project in mid 2001, initially as an observer, the international project had already been running for about ten years, so there was a vast amount of ground for us to cover in order to catch up. It is an enormous credit to the project leadership, the team, and the unwavering support from the NRF and Govern - ment, that within five years South Africa was shortlisted for the site selection, together with Australia, and then six years later was recommended as the preferred site for the SKA. A remarkable achievement.” – Dr. George Nicolson, former Director of the Hartebeesthoek Radio Astronomy Observatory, and co-initiator of South Africa’s involvement in the SKA “From the beginning, South Africa’s SKA bid has been a combined effort of the SKA bid team, the Department of Science and Technology, the National Research Foundation and other stakeholders. Contributions made by team members, both past and present, were key in ensuring the success of our bid and credit cannot go to any single individual. From the co-operation we received from role-players from the outset to the various managers, engineers, consultants and volunteers involved in the SKA bid, we can all stand proud for what we have achieved not only for Africa but also for astronomy as a whole. – Dr. Bernie Fanaroff, Project Director of the SKA South Africa Project “The selection of Africa to host the mid-frequency SKA array, and the incorporation of the locally designed and built MeerKAT into the first phase of the SKA, is a clear statement by our international peers that Africa has become a destination for world-class fundamental scientific research and cutting-edge technology development.

  • Species Delimitation and Speciation Process in the Seriphium Plumosum L
    Species delimitation and speciation process in the Seriphium plumosum L. complex (Gnaphalieae: Asteraceae) in South Africa By Zaynab Shaik Dissertation presented in fulfilment of the degree of Master of Science specialising in Biological Sciences Under supervision by: Assoc. Prof. G.A. Verboom (Department of Biological Sciences, University of Cape Town) Dr N.G. Bergh (Compton Herbarium, South African National Biodiversity Institute) Department of Biological Sciences, University of Cape Town February 2019 Abstract The remarkable richness of the Cape Floristic Region (CFR) and the high in situ diversification inferred for the region prompt interest in two key areas: first, to what extent has the true species richness of the Cape been discovered and described, and second, what are the key drivers of speciation? Steady efforts in taxonomy dating back to the early 17th century have led some to estimate that over 99% of species in the Cape flora have already been described. However, taxonomic research in the Cape has, as elsewhere, relied on morphology for delimiting species, implying that undiscovered species diversity among cryptic taxa may be substantial. Early ideas regarding the drivers of diversification in the Cape flora emphasised climatically-induced vicariant speciation. Since that time, both vicariance and ecological speciation have been invoked as drivers of diversification. However, the relative contributions of either of these modes to the richness of the flora remains unclear. The present work focuses on Seriphium plumosum, a species complex in the daisy tribe Gnaphalieae with a recent evolutionary origin and a core distribution in the Cape Floristic Region. The species’ problematic taxonomic history, its substantial morphological and ecological variability, as well as its large geographic distribution in southern Africa suggest that the current concept of the species houses multiple independent evolutionary species.

  • Scientific Curiosity, Commitment to Social Justice and Turning Challenges Into Opportunities. These Are the Virtues That Defin
    Scientific Curiosity, Commitment to Social Justice and turning Challenges into Opportunities. These are the virtues that define the NRF 2018 Lifetime Achievement Awardee, Dr Bernard Fanaroff. Bernie, as we affectionately know him, is one of those rare individuals who has dedicated his life to the scientific project, activism against apartheid and an unwavering commitment to public service. Very few people can, rightfully, claim to have made significant contributions, in the sphere of scientific enquiry, trade union and civic organising, helping shape – in the highest office of the land – the programme of a newly formed democratic state, defining the values informing a nation’s management of firearms and successfully managing the bid to host the world’s largest scientific project, the Square Kilometre Array Telescope, and overseeing the design and development of its precursor, the MeerKAT. That he was meant to make significant contributions to the scientific world and society in general must have been quite apparent during his undergraduate years at Wits and even more so while completing his PhD at Cambridge University working in the Cavendish Laboratory with the One Mile Telescope and Five Kilometre Telescope. There, working with British astronomer, Julia Riley, they made a breakthrough in the classification of radio galaxies and quasars when they identified two classes of radio sources which now bear their names – Fanaroff-Riley class I and class II sources, or FR-I and FR-II as they are now universally known. Forgoing, at the time, a career in scientific research, Bernie returned to South Africa, and in accordance with his commitment to social justice dedicated 19 years to the struggle against apartheid as an organiser and national secretary for the Metal and Allied Workers Union, which became the National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa, NUMSA.

    THE MINUTE BOOK OF THE CAPE TOWN BRANCH OF THE CLASSICAL ASSOCIATION OF SOUTH AFRICA, 1927 - 1940 J Murray ( University of Cape Town) 1 This article surveys the contents of archival material found in the manuscript and archives section of the Special Collections of the University of Cape Town Libraries. In particular , it scrutinises the activities recorded in the Minute Book of the Cape Town Branch of the Classical Association of South Africa, 1927 - 1940. The details found in the Minute Book shed valuab le light on the teaching and research of classical antiquity in South Africa in the early part of the twentieth century, illuminating a lesser - known period of the history of the Classical Association of South Africa . Keywords : History of Classical Scholar ship; Classical e ducation; Classical Association of South Africa; South African h istory; i ntellectual h istory . In his record of the Classical Association of South Africa, 1908 - 1956, William Henderson noted that, ‘There was also a CASA during the years 192 7 - 1956, until now considered the “first”, but henceforth to be regarded as the “second ” . Very little has been written about and not much interest shown in this second association, probably because of lack of information, most of it buried in archives or lo st’. 2 More information is to be found in the Minute Book of the Cape Town Branch of the Classical Association of South Africa, covering the years 1927 to 1940, housed in the manuscripts and archives section of the Special Collections of the University of C ape Town Libraries (file BCS20).
