“We at SAFHU are excited that Israel’s premier university has opened its doors to our South African students.” They added that they “look forward to assisting more students with their enrolment to HU”.
The two Katzes and Barnett said it was a “crucial mission of the university, Israel’s main source of innovation and leadership, to recruit the next generation of brilliant scientists and scholars who will conduct ground-breaking research and mentor thousands of students each year”. And as SAFHU, they continue to support The Hebrew University to assist it in its life changing research.
