CANADA: Ban contacts with Free State

Ardeane Maharaj 13 April 2008

I read Andy Schmulow's article, Ban contacts with University of the Free State. As a South African living in Canada, I was moved to write and thank him for taking a firm and principled stance on this issue. After following the story for the past few weeks, I have found that his analysis does not stray from the matter and he also proposes concrete measures to address the obvious shortcomings at UFS.
