Pieter-Dirk Uys joined Alumni and<br />

Friends for conversation after a performance<br />

of Elections & Erections, during<br />

which Uys recalled his <strong>UCT</strong> student<br />

days as a formative time in his life.<br />

The newly-formed D.C. Alumni and Friends Society held their first<br />

networking event in January. Organized by Katie Irvin (MPhil 2006),<br />

the gathering attracted <strong>UCT</strong> alumni from classes ranging between<br />

1947 and 2006, former study abroad students and other friends of<br />

<strong>UCT</strong> in the D.C. area. Katie hopes that this is just the start of regular<br />

get-togethers.<br />
