Pictures and paraphernalia were discovered in two rooms at the Wilgenhof men’s residence.

The vice-chancellor of Stellenbosch University, Professor Wim de Villiers, has announced that they are in the final stages of appointing a three-person panel to review the items discovered in two rooms at a men’s residence earlier this week.

This follows revelations by News24 about shocking pictures and paraphernalia discovered in two rooms at the Wilgenhof men’s residence, which included crude drawings depicting what appeared to be male sexual assault, black hoods, and photographs of initiation practices dating back to 1900.

In a video message posted on social media, De Villiers said that the rooms have been repainted and will now be used for their original purpose.
