Economics gets a shot in the arm

UCT's School of Economics received a cash donation from construction company Indawo Painting and Waterproofing in March.

By way of thanks, the school will now add the company's name to its growing donor wall. Dean of the Faculty of Commerce, Professor Don Ross, says the faculty's primary objective with donor funding is quality higher learning. "(Indawo) will - like other donors in this initial phase - be playing a role in identifying our research agenda." In picture are UCT's Chris Briers and John Critien, Indawo's Peter Jäck, and Ross.
