Universiteit Stellenbosch (US) se raad het tydens \u2018n vergadering op Saterdag 20 Februarie besluit dat \u201cdie taalbeleid, -plan en -spesifikasies buigsaam toegepas mag word\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
AfriForum het onlangs \u2018n hofaansoek ingedien om die US te verplig om te verseker die huidige taalbeleid word gevolg n\u00e1 die regsgeleerdheid en ingenieurswese fakulteite besluit het om Engels as voertaal te gebruik.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
US het die knie gebuig en onderneem om te verseker Afrikaans en Engels is op gelyke voet, maar die nuutste besluit blyk om di\u00e9 onderneming te weerspreek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens adv. Jan Heunis, president van die US-konvokasie, is die doel van hierdie besluit \u201com aan die bestuur volmag te gee om, soos daar in 2016 weggespring is, voort te gaan met Engels as voorkeur onderrigtaal ten spyte daarvan dat dit \u2018n afwyking van die taalbeleid is en dat daar \u2018n skriftelike onderneming aan AfriForum gegee is dat dit gestaak sal word.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWat in effek gebeur het, is dat die raad \u2018n ondersoek gelas het na die oorsaak van die onverkwiklike situasie waarin die universiteit sigself bevind as gevolg van die afwyking van sy taalbeleid en daarna, maar teenstrydig met \u2018n bindende ooreenkoms met AfriForum, sy eie taalbeleid, waarvan hy glo die bestuur afgewyk het, probeer verander het om in ooreenstemming te wees met wat die bestuur besig is om aan te vang.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIn die proses het die raad vir alle praktiese doeleindes sy beleid van meertaligheid versaak en \u2018n beleid van buigsaamheid, wat die doodsklok vir Afrikaans is, aanvaar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie raad het, soos wat die bestuur voortdurend doen, gebuig.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Heunis s\u00ea ook die aanstelling van \u2018n komitee om advies oor taal en taalbeleidshersiening aan te bied is van \u201cskrale troos\u201d aangesien rektor en visekanselier prof. Wim de Villiers op hierdie komitee gaan dien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
De Villiers het verlede jaar groot ongelukkigheid onder sommige studente veroorsaak toe hy voorgestel het Engels moet die prim\u00eare voertaal by die universiteit wees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHierdie verwikkelinge het baie ernstige implikasies, nie alleen vir die Universiteit van Stellenbosch nie, maar ook vir onderwys in die bre\u00eb, veral in die Wes-Kaap,\u201d s\u00ea Heunis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk beoog om in die nabye toekoms en op \u2018n dringende basis samesprekings met ander rolspelers te voer ten einde op \u2018n strategie te besluit om hierdie dwaasheid te probeer hokslaan.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
