A Day in the Life of the University of Pretoria. 15 March 2005

Posted on June 05, 2023

On this "Day in the life of the University of Pretoria" President Thabo Mbeki opened the new Law building.

This ultra-modern design won a number of architectural awards. The law library located in the building was named after the struggle leader Oliver R. Tambo. The Law of Africa Collection, the most up-to-date collection of legislation and law reports from African countries in the world at the time, is housed in the library. It is used by researchers from around the world.

The University of Pretoria Archives (UPA) preserves the history of the University of Pretoria. The UPA has an extensive photo collection and clipping collection. Please contact us on [email protected] to share your memories of Tukkies or to access our collection.
