The Faculty of Humanities at CUT held their annual prize giving ceremony on 14 September 2018 to celebrate and recognise top performing students in the faculty. The ceremony was not only a token of appreciation and acknowledgement to the hard work and dedication put in by students, but it also seen as a form of encouragement to other students to always strive for the best in all they do.

The keynote speaker, Dr Molaodi Tshelane, Lecturer, Risk Management and EMS discipline coordinator: School of Social Sciences and Language Education, UFS,applauded the students for undoubtedly working hard to reach their top and receiving awards for it.

“I am very impressed with the achievements of everyone here, but I am especially in awe of those of you whose efforts will be awarded. I believe that many of you have strived to do your best to be a part of this ceremony and I am certain that all those steps represent the true spirit of the Central University of Technology, Free State (CUT) to produce countless stars.

We must recognize and award excellence. Individually and collectively, our destiny lies in the ability to connect the points of light in our lives so that we can see the broader patterns of eternity. As we work hard, choose wisely, overcome opposition, and exercise faith in what we do, we will recognize that our destiny is not merely to gaze into the night sky but to create and organize the stars so as to survive in life.”

PPS Insurance Company Ltd sponsored the event.
