Cape Town - Students at other universities are anxious about the idea of a ban on alcohol inside residences, after Stellenbosch University announced a temporary ban.
Students raised their concerns after the announcement, with some asking for more initiatives to help reduce alcohol abuse. DA Students’ Organisation provincial chairperson Leighton September said the idea could lessen the alcohol consumption on campus and reduce the drinking culture. “However, banning alcohol does not mean that it would not be used”. Students can still go to bars and clubs in town to have a drink,” he said.
SA Students’ Congress provincial chairperson Buyile Matiwane said institutions must provide enough recreational activities for students.
