A day in the life at the University of Pretoria. 31 May 1921

On this "Day in the life of the University of Pretoria" the first extramural student council of the Transvaal University College was formed.

The constitution of the student council was also drafted on this day. Members of the student council would be elected on a yearly basis. The first elected chairman was Mr. H.S. Walker. Ms C.M. Hall was elected as the first vice chair lady.

The University of Pretoria Archives (UPA) preserves the history of the University of Pretoria.
