Abstract
Background: UWC has won the first round in the fight against the De Klerk conditions. A full bench of the Cape Supreme Court has declared the subsidy-linked disciplinary conditions on the university to be invalid. The conditions required universities to restrict political activism by their students and staff members and to report disruptions and other violations to the government. In a short judgement ten days ago, Mr Justice Howie said the reasons for the decision would be formulated as soon as possible. The judgement followed a joint application by UWC and UCT against the subsidy conditions imposed in October last year.
