What is the point of saying it is dwarfed by the non-contact university of south africa? UP is the biggest contact university, the statement sounds sort of propogandish to me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bertus (talkcontribs)

That "propogandish" statement is true Jediwannabe 06:03, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

UNISA has over 100,000 students - Carl Edwin Lindgren, DEd (UNISA)Royalhistorian (talk) 02:09, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Why all the statistics on the colour of the students? Does the skin color of an organisation's students mean anything to anyone?

Questions of transformation (affirmative action etc.) are quite sensitive at the moment at SA universities, particularly with respect to admissions policies. Thus the statistics are of importance (much though one may be saddened that we continue to classify people by skin colour). - htonl 23:22, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Neutrality

This article isn't written in a neutral fashion and should be checked. Is there anyone that feels the same? Niël 04:14, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

If agreeable, I would like to rework it. Would this be alright? Royalhistorian (talk) 02:09, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Innovation generation.gif

Image:Innovation generation.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
