CPUT Closes Campus Over Violent Disruptions

Continued violent disruptions, torching of buildings and wanton attacks on institutional infrastructure, have forced Cape Peninsula University of Technology management to close all campuses indefinitely.

Unruly students, acting in bad faith, with the sole purpose of making the university dysfunctional have left Management with no other choice but to act swiftly and decisively. The safety of staff and students is our primary concern at this stage. Also Read: CPUT Transport Arrangements for Emergency Evacuation of Residence

Kind Regards

CPUT Management
