South Africa’s higher education institutions are unique; they exist within varied financial, socio-economic and historic contexts. However, within this diverse landscape, there needs to be cohesion, shared standards and benchmarks as well as stakeholder alignment when it comes to the provision of student affairs, student development and support services across the sector.
These were some of the key take-aways the participants of the Student Affairs and Student Success (SASS) programme participants shared during the SASS Colloquium that was held on the East Rand in Gauteng, on 6 December 2004.
