Wits ‘privileged to have Dr Judy’

Dr Judy Dlamini was inaugurated in December as chancellor of Wits University, succeeding retired Constitutional Court deputy chief justice Dikgang Moseneke. The chancellor is the formal head of the university, elected by the convocation (alumni and academic staff) for a six-year term. When Dlamini’s election was announced, the Wits acting vice-chancellor and principal at the time, Professor Tawana Kupe, said: “The university is privileged to have Dr Judy Dlamini serve as the chancellor. She is a public figure of very high distinction and personal calibre and reflects the university’s commitment to intellectual integrity and academic excellence.”
