中国体育彩票 Equité
Equité is a Commuter Student Community (CSC) with an estimated 1,600 members. Commuter Student Communities are student-led organisations designed to create and implement well-rounded programs that support students who do not live in university residences. These communities provide ample opportunities for the overall development of students. CSCs cater to approximately 70% of Stellenbosch 中国体育彩票's student population. Commuter students are divided into eleven undergraduate communities and three postgraduate communities, each implementing various initiatives to facilitate successful social and academic integration.
This flexible and diverse organisational structure offers access to both sporting facilities and cultural activities, as well as knowledgeable mentors who provide guidance and support during the first year and beyond. The experience offered by CSCs ultimately moulds students into skilled, resourceful, and employable graduates who are well-positioned for the job market.?
Equité is a community of generations of strong, capable individuals who are provided with opportunities for personal development, self-expression, and mutual growth. The community fosters an environment that encourages unity while respecting individuality. Equité strives to empower and support its members through the co-curricular experience.
Equité's values are:
Pride: Equité aims to create an exceptional space where its members can feel proud, comfortable, and confident.
Authenticity: “The quality of being authentic” – Members are encouraged to remain true to themselves, with the community taking pride in individuality.
Ubuntu: “I am because you are” – The community emphasizes the importance of humanity and strives to build lasting relationships.
Respek: “Respect” – Equité places great emphasis on respecting one another and the environment.
Amandla: “Power” – The community understands the depth of this term and values the power of unity, which aligns closely with the value of Ubuntu.

?Mentor ?Programme
The mentorship program at Equité consists of 16 members who ensure that every newcomer experiences a fun, insightful, resourceful, and smooth transition into university and the larger Stellenbosch community. Mentors guide and share information about faculties, academics, and all aspects of Equité.
The mentorship program also serves as a platform for creative freedom in building relationships and conveying information. It is based on the BeWell and IFlourish systems, where mentors guide newcomers through the dimensions of physical, social, intellectual, occupational, mental, emotional, and spiritual wellness during their first year.
Equité believes that a mentor is, first and foremost, a genuine friend—someone who has the mentee's best interests at heart, listens to their struggles, and truly cares about them.??

Sport – Hockey, Netball, Virtual Gaming, Soccer, and various other sporting codes.
