The most important part of campus, but also the anti-climax to every student’s experience at campus.

With computers in most classes, practical lessons make theory classes seem more optional, and with the freedom that campus life brings, many learners, as a result, end up spending more time in the cafeteria than in actual classes.

As first years, the adjustment from high-school to university can be daunting. Some days have an early start, while others only start in the afternoons, making getting out of bed seem that much more laborious.

Timetable changes at the beginning to the year took a particular toll on Group A, starting the year off with having Fridays free and ending up having class until 4pm left many students disappointed and angered.

With the new tutorial periods in place, CPUT aims to assist students in Development Software and Information Systems, and although these lessons eat into our free time, the end result is definitely worth the effort.

Daily people walk from the Taxi Rank, Bus Terminus or Train Station in Cape Town and walk across the Grand Parade without stopping to take in the beautiful view of Table Mountain and the City Hall.

So... Burger King Opened today, we decide to take a look at the opening and maybe even get a FREE Whopper, we get there at 10h00 and the queues are already very long, despite the opening being at 12h00...

We decided against out Free Whoppers and walked back to Campus to get a HUGE Gatsby Rather at the low price of R40

Today Mountain Dew visited CPUT Cape Town Campus as part of the Mountain Dew "Do The Dew SA" Universities Tour. Was an awesome experience offering plenty of free prizes, Xbox games live, free learn how to skateboard lesson by Professional Skateboarders and a Custom Graffiti Skateboard Deck to the person who wins the #DoTheDewSA tweet competition, having about 70 tweets i thought i was going to win just to be surprised by a guy with 170 tweets. Nevertheless the BMX and Skateboard tricks and stunts were amazing and all in all we had a great experience.

Before we ramble about our campus life, I thought it would be appropriate to give a bit of info about our actual campus.

• Did you know that the first brick was laid in 1920!!pretty awesome I’d say
• It also wasn't initially a tertiary education institute, as there was once an act that did not allow for technikons to offer it.
• It is now amongst the most well renowned institutes in the Southern part of Africa.
• Its located in the heart of District 6 for those who do not know.

Okay enough of the boring stuffs

• Just look at that mountain view!!!
• Our campus has the craziest events on the piazza where they host live music band performances to Bmx trick shows... narly right?
• We are literally 2 minutes away from Cape Town City Central.

This is all just the tip of the ice berg, and as you can see, this is the place to be to excel and at the same time have a great social life…
