Op 15 Oktober is twee van Suid-Afrika se atlete ingehuldig in die Suid-Afrikaanse Heldesaal tydens die 15de amptelike Dagbreek-straatmyl, te ere van hul sukses in atletiek. Een ding wat dié twee atlete in gemeen het, is die feit dat hul albei groot sukses behaal het in die voltooiing van ‘n droommyl.
‘n Droommyl verwys na die hardloop van een myl (ongeveer 1 609 meter) binne minder as vier minute - ‘n internasionaal-erkende prestasie wat groot toewyding, tegniek en uithouvermoë vereis.

Wat is kuns? Waar kom die waarde vandaan en hoe versoen ‘n mens verskille in smaak?
Alles vrae wat “KUNS”, die wêreldbekende drama deur franse dramaturg Yasmina Reza, nadink. Die vriendskap van Serge, Marc en Yvan word tot die uiterste beproef nadat Serge ‘n kunswerk koop vir ‘n verregaande prys en die res van die groep nie dieselfde prag in die skildery raaksien nie.

This Halloween, skip lame jump scares and watch scary stories that matter. Horror has always been the genre for outsiders.
Weirdos, witches, and misfits finally get the spotlight, and so-called “monsters” get a voice. From demonic teens to murderous farm girls, feminist and q***r horror flips the script.
These five films prove that sometimes the scariest things aren’t ghosts or ghouls, they’re women and q***rs refusing to be ignored.

Even though the main focus of the evening was on the students, one award in particular stood out - the official Green Building Council of South Africa (GBCSA) Net Zero Carbon Certification of the Stellenbosch Institute for Advanced Study (STIAS) Extension. As the first net zero carbon building on the university campus - and the first at any South African university - it marked a significant milestone in SUs ongoing commitment to sustainability and environmental innovation.

In 2023, the co-founder of Fashion Galore, Camila Nkhama, a fourth-year (Bachelor of Informatics Honours) student in, made her dreams a reality. She reflects on why she started Fashion Galore and her intentions behind it. “In 2023, I had gone to fashion events in Cape Town,” she says. “I always thought that they were so cool and inspiring. My thought was, why do I have to travel all the way to Cape Town from Stellenbosch if we could just have our own events here in Stellenbosch?

Zoid het van haar eie treffers, sowel as ‘n paar psalms opgevoer. Tussendeur het sy brokkies wysheid en n grap of twee met die gehoor gedeel en meer gesels oor hoe sy met die idee vir Zoid Psalms vorendag gekom het. Sy is ‘n meester daarin om die gehoor betrokke by die ruimte en die musiek te laat voel.

It has been a year since the Into Style duo, Marize Mulder, a MPhil (Interdisciplinary Arts Studies), student, and Jasmine de Wet, a BA (Humanities) graduate, hosted their first thrift and swop event at the CoCreate Hub on 18 October last year - an event where you can hand in your unworn, unwanted clothing in exchange for “new“ (but still second-hand) pieces of clothing.

The LifePod Donor Management Room is a designated space at Tygerberg Hospital where the donor’s organs are kept alive for up to 36 hours while a suitable recipient is being found. Die Matie sat down with fifth-year medical student and Save founder Jonty Wright to discuss how one conversation can lead to saving seven lives, and how students are stepping up to change the narrative around organ donation in South Africa.

From the first scene, the weight of displacement is immediate. Boesman, played with explosive intensity by Brendon Daniels, drags himself across a barren landscape, shown by a single heap of sand and some sparse weeds. There are also a few props - their worn tarp, a torn mattress, thin blankets “wat nie eens warm hou nie” (“that don’t even keep warm”), battered cups, and bottles of wine - telling a story of relentless poverty and exploitation.

Terwyl Laura en Daniel met hul eie probleme van die lewe worstel en die lot van hul lewens probeer ontsyfer, vind hulle hoop en troosting in mekaar se teenwoordigheid, en die potensiële toekoms wat hulle kan deel. Met ‘n eenvoudige, simplistiese stel en dekor, word die fokus van die toneelstuk eerder op die karakters en hul verhouding met mekaar geplaas as die omgewing waarin hul hulself bevind.
