Message to be broadcast over the SABC by the Vice-Chancellor on plans and prospects for Rhodes University in 1981

The year 1980 has been a good one for Rhodes University, both academically and financially. In the academic sphere, the University launched the M.Sc degree course in Limnology and there have been extensions to the courses offered in African History and in English in Africa. The major development, however, has been the establishment of two new chairs - one in Electronics and the other in English-Second- Language, endowed respectively by Federale Electronics and the Molteno Brothers' Trust
