<br />&nbsp;
<br />After the Storms &mdash; Academic Freedom and Leadership in Higher Education
<br />&nbsp;
<br />During the apartheid years, academic freedom was the main concept used to defend the autonomy of institutions of higher learning. Throughout the period, universities commemorated and marked the passing of the Extension of University Education Act of 1959 by holding protests or organising lectures on academic freedom. With the end of apartheid, it has become less clear what academic freedom means and whether it is still a useful term for understanding the internal and external threats to university autonomy. This conversation between two former university vice-chancellors will explore the post-apartheid dilemmas of university leadership through the lens of academic freedom.
<br />&nbsp;
<br />Speakers include Max Price and Adam Habib
<br />The discussion will be moderated by Victoria Collis-Buthelezi
