Crime has reared its head again at the Durban University of Technology, but this time Student Representative Council members were responsible for wanton destruction on two campuses. Try and educate these monkeys in an environment like this! This resulted in registrations being halted on all campuses.

The main issue surrounds outstanding fees. In addition to this, the SRC has disputed high registration fees, poor accommodation facilities and poor campus security, which was not addressed adequately in 2007.

One of their biggest gripes was that hundreds of students could not register because of a shortfall, on the DUT’s part, of their fees.The DUT was apparently supposed to pay R19-million to cover a shortfall for financial aid students and it had not.
