Stefan I was there in the 70's.
Some family members graduated recently.
It is probably on par with Wits and UCT.
Good medicine school. Engineering is also good. The Engineering
faculty had a satellite put into space by Nasa recently. It was
designed and designed at Stellenbosch.
It is a traditionally Afrikaans varsity that started up soon after
UCT.
It had good sporting teams.
Further on it has the usual assortment of faculties - law, social
sciences, economy, journalism, medicine, engineering, languages etc.
They have a web site. I don't know the address but it should be easy
to find.

Cheryll, Stefan se vraag is: "can you get by in Stellenbosch without a car
(maybe just a bike)..."
Stefan, die kort antwoord is ja. Maar, soos altyd, is 'n kar handig om die
area te verken.
Groete

Om universiteite te vergelyk, is om appels en pere te vergelyk.
Verskillende standaarde vir verskillende studierigtings. Wits en UCT
was in hulle dae uitstekend, maar het blykbaar bietjie verval. So ook
Stellenbosch, alhoewel niemand daardie dorp kan klop as dit by
studentesamehorigheid en trots kom nie. Die UCT kampus is blykbaar ook nie
vreeslik veilig nie.
