Final-year Wits student has her dreams crushed

Briefly News reported on a girl whose dream of graduating was shattered after her father lost a legal bid to force the University of the Witwatersrand to let her walk in her graduation ceremony.

The father, who owed the university R100K in fees, had taken the university to court in a last-ditch attempt to allow his daughter to graduate. However, the court ruled against him, saying that the university was within its rights to withhold her degree until the fees were paid.
