- Description: From introduction: This afternoon we publicly launch an exquisite tapestry commissioned from the Keiskamma Arts Project based in Hamburg on the coast. It is intended to express the social purposes that are the rationale for our existence; the geography and environment of Rhodes University; the economic, political, historical and social forces that have shaped it over 107 years and the complexity, antinomies, paradoxes and ambiguities of Rhodes’ history. It is also intended to express our origins, where we have come from the road we have travelled and where we are today; the continuities and discontinuities that characterise Rhodes; the inexcusable and shameful actions of our past in which we can take no pride, as well as the courageous actions, successes and achievements in which we can take pride, and that we can and must celebrate. The launch of the tapestry is an important moment in our continuing journey as Rhodes University of critical reflection, ‘critical appreciation of where we come from,’ and ‘dialogical and analytic engagement with where we are now’ and where we seek to be in future. I have indicated that the launch of the tapestry is a moment in our continuing journey – a journey of the remaking, renewal, modernisation, transformation and further development of Rhodes University.

- Description: From introduction: The Purposes of a University. So permit me to spend a few minutes on the meaning of a university and the three purposes. Rhodes University exists to serve. The first purpose is to produce knowledge, so that we can advance understanding of our natural and social worlds and enrich our scientific and cultural heritage. This means that we ‘test the inherited knowledge of earlier generations’, we dismantle the mumbo jumbo that masquerades for knowledge, we ‘reinvigorate’ knowledge, and we share our findings with others. As a university, our second purpose is to disseminate knowledge and to develop your minds. Our goal is to ensure that you can think imaginatively, ‘effectively and critically’; that you ‘achieve depth in some field of knowledge’; that you can critique ideas and views and construct alternatives, and that you can communicate cogently, orally and in writing. Our final purpose as a university is to undertake community engagement, whether this is as part of academic courses or your voluntary participation in community projects organized by our Community Engagement Office.
