INTRODUCTION Welcome to Allan Webb Hall. It is without doubt the most beautiful Hall on the campus. Not only are we the smallest Hall but we have the most amenities for our students.

This booklet, although rather intimidating at first glance, aims to make it easier for you to understand how the Hall operates. Above all remember that consideration is the optimum rule.

The rules are supplementary to the Student Disciplinary Code contained in the University Calendar.

University life is wonderful but it depends on how much you are prepared to put into it.

We hope your stay will be a happy and productive one.

HISTORY OF ALLAN WEBB HALL

The roots of the Hall go right back into the history of Grahamstown – in fact to 1883, when a group of five young women in their early twenties responded to the call of Allan Becher Webb, Bishop of Grahamstown, to leave England and undertake work in his diocese. Amongst them was Annie Cecilia Ramsbottom Isherwood, a girl of twenty. It was agreed that she would start an order of sisters to be known as the Community of the Resurrection and she was clothed as a novice in 1884. She was known as Mother Cecile CR (pronounced Cecil).

The story of the Sisters is one of enormous courage, determination and endurance as they set about opening St Peter's School, the Good Shepherd Mission School, a boarding house for the children of railway workers and an orphanage (up till then destitute and orphaned children lived in the prisons). Life was difficult and often there was no money or food, some lost their health and some died but they all held fast to the vision of their call. Mother Cecile CR herself died at forty three of cancer exacerbated by overwork.

In 1894 they founded the Grahamstown Training College, an institution which played a valuable part in the development of education in southern Africa, so much so that it was considered a "national loss" when it was forced to close down in 1975.

Rhodes University bought the property and in 1977 Canterbury Hall, comprised of Canterbury House and Winchester House, was born. In 1979 Salisbury House and Truro House were added and the Hall became known as Allan Webb Hall.

The dining hall, built in 1909 in memory of Mother Cecile CR, is certainly the most beautiful on Campus. It is a magnificent

baronial - styled hall designed by the company of Herbert Baker and Massey.

We are justly proud of our history and our Hall. We have a great heritage.

BISHOP ALLAN WEBB

Born in Calcutta on 6 October 1839. His father was the Presidency Surgeon.

He was educated at Rugby and then at Corpus Christ College, Oxford. Subsequently he became tutor of his college and Vice-Principal of Cuddesdon Theological College.

He was married in 1867 and three years later was invited to undertake the charge of the diocese of Bloemfontein and the recently discovered diamond fields.

In 1883 he was called to Grahamstown and within a year of arriving set out for England with the specific idea of bringing women to Grahamstown for mission work, particularly amongst the children.

In 1898 he resigned due to the ill health of his wife.

Well respected for the immense work and writings he had achieved, he was called to be Dean of Salisbury Cathedral, England in 1901 until he died in 1907.

Magnificent stained glass windows were erected in Salisbury Cathedral in his memory.

MOTHER CECILE CR (pronounced Cecil)

Annie Cecilia Ramsbottom Isherwood was born in Uxbridge, Middlesex, England in 1862. Her parents were well-to-do and she was educated privately. Her parents died at an early age and she was brought up by relatives


Page 4

in London where she attended St Peter's Church, Eaton Square.

She was twenty one when Bishop Webb came to preach in St Peter's on the text "I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision". It was at this service she felt called to join him and his team in Grahamstown. Once the work of the volunteers had been established, Bishop Webb asked Cecile if she would be prepared to start an order of sisters. She agreed and was clothed as a novice in 1884. Sadly her brother and sister refused to have anything more to do with her at this point.

One co-worker said of her: "she was so fresh, so simple and natural and seemed unconscious of the love and joy which flowed out from her and made everything glad around her". Cecile herself once said: "The life of the Sister must be the way of the cross, self-surrender and self sacrifice. We are not Sisters of the Resurrection to escape trials, but to enable us to go forward to triumph over them victoriously".

A young man wrote after her death: "Her greatest attraction was that nothing was too bad for her. She entered into every bit of one's life, and one could tell her anything, sorrow, joys, faults, and she sympathized with everything and always saw the amusing side of everything too with that dear twinkle in her eye. There never was nor will be anyone quite like her again".

In 1905, she was in great pain and seriously ill with cancer. It was decided that she should return to England for rest and perhaps an operation. Unable to rest, she again attended meetings to raise funds for the College and its chapel. During one of these meetings she collapsed and had to undergo the operation. She did not survive more than a few days and died on 20 February 1906.

A telegram was sent to the small Community in Grahamstown: "Mother rests, her peace our comfort".

Her last words were: "Oh! don't let the sparkle go out of the place".

MOTHER FLORENCE CR

The arrival of this, the second Mother of the Community, could not have been better timed. The Community then consisted of three Sisters who had recently been bereft at the early death of one of the novices - Sister Joan Margaret CR. For a time the sense of loss was so great that it was feared the Community would come to an end. Florence's arrival gave them all great hope and she was a stalwart to Mother Cecile CR and the Community during Mother's illness and eventual death.

Born on 31 October 1855 at Newport Manor, Lincoln, England, Florence Annie Norton at the age of thirty offered herself for mission work in Central Africa. Refusing her application on reasons of poor health, the doctors advised a year of rest and quiet. This she did and in 1887 was able to write to Bishop Webb "I have no binding home ties (my Father and Mother are both dead). I have independent means so that I should not have to ask for help for travelling or for maintenance. I should like to offer myself and my means unconditionally but cannot do so on account of my health which is not very strong, and I could not pledge myself to any great amount of work; indeed at first it might only be very little that I could do. I must tell you plainly that the doctors I have consulted are not in favour of me going abroad but I am not an invalid or used to invalid ways and have always lived plainly. I have no shining talents and very little experience in work".

Known by many as the "Mighty Atom", this 5ft. lady served as Mother of the Community for 25 years and lived to the age of ninety


Page 5

five. One Priest Associate wrote of her at the time of her death: “She was so little to be so great, so tiny to hold so much love, so small of stature to have grown to such heights of goodness.”

It was during her years that much of the building and extension work was done.

MOTHER EDITH CR

Mother Edith CR lived until 99 years of age and lived as a Sister in the Community for 73 of those years, being Mother Superior for the period 1930-1945. During her period of office she showed a spirit of adventure and a great desire to help people of every race and colour. She sent Sisters to a remote Mission Station in the then Northern Rhodesia (now Zambia) where they started a hospital and a clinic for lepers, and founded a primary school for African girls, in very primitive surrounding, as well as founding the Orphanage.

It was in Mother Edith’s first year as Superior that Founder’s Day was inaugurated at the Training College, on the Saturday nearest to Mother Cecile’s birthday (November 14th). She was also responsible for encouraging the composition of the College Hymns.

Mother Edith kept faithfully to all her religious duties almost to the end, and though increasingly helpless, she said her Offices and interceded daily for a great many people; she forgot no-one and her active mind retained a keen interest in the affairs of the Community and of the Church of the Province of South Africa. On the day of her death she asked for her Communion and after the Blessed Sacrament had been brought to her she relapsed into unconsciousness and passed to her rest a few hours later.

MOTHER DOROTHEA CR

Dorothy Mary Cole came out to South Africa from England in 1925. She is remembered for

her red-gold hair and amazing control of a fiery temperament which is usually associated with it – surely God’s gift of grace. Before becoming Superior of the Community in 1945 she worked as a secretary first in the School of Music and later for the Technical College. She was also House Sister in the College Hostels for Bangor, Lincoln, Canterbury and the Grotto (what is now Salisbury). She was such a good and holy Mother Superior that the Community elected her for a second term of office. Mother Dorothea’s special qualities of character were: her charm and graciousness; her unfailing courtesy towards everyone; her loving, motherly personality, especially towards her elderly and infirm Sisters, and the children of the Home for Coloured Children; her love and reverence towards all God’s creatures, great and small (it is recorded that she would not even harm a mosquito!); her capacity for looking and finding what was best in the characters of others, then with trust and encouragement, urging them to respond to the challenge of doing better. She also had the gift of being able to delegate, and her loyal support of those whom she placed in positions of responsibility was a source of strength to them.

MOTHER JOANNA MARY CR

Mother Joanna Mary CR was born Janye Vazeille Boddy, third child of the Vicar of Pittington in 1893. Her mother was in some way connected with Catherine Booth, wife of the famous General of the Salvation Army, and the name Vazeille came from her). After being expelled from the China Inland Mission she served in France during the first World War and the injuries sustained during her time there as a Missionary plagued her for the rest of her life. Her father was responsible for introducing her to Smith Wigglesworth, one of the early leaders of the Pentecostal movement. He visited Jayne and laid hands upon her and from then on she had the gift of


Page 6

tongues. She seldom spoke of this experience except sometimes to her Novices after she became Novice Mistress in the Community, and it was not until the Charismatic Revival in Grahamstown in the early 1970’s that it really became known.

After training as a teacher at Durham University and caring for her mother until her death in 1928, Janye Boddy travelled to Grahamstown and was admitted to the Novitiate in 1932, making her First Profession as Sister Joanna Mary CR in 1934. She spent many of her years teaching in many schools and parishes around Southern Africa. She was soon recalled Grahamstown to become Mother Superior, a position she held for a relatively short period, mainly due to her increasing bad health, however she continued to serve as a link between the earlier Charismatic Revival in England in her youth and the one being led by Bishop Bill Burnett in Grahamstown in the early 1970’s.

MOTHER MARY ELEANOR CR

Eleanor Wilson was the only child of her parents, Benjamin and Emily Mary Wilson (nee Hodgson) of Darlington, Yorkshire. Soon after their marriage the Wilsons came to South Africa, and settled in Port Elizabeth, where Eleanor was born. When she was only three years old, the family moved to East London and eventually settled in St Saviour’s Parish, where the Community had already established the House of the Good Shepherd. So from an early age Eleanor came in contact with the Community which she was eventually to join. The family quickly became involved in the worship and life of St Saviour’s. Her parents became frail and both suffered from heart trouble, and needed much nursing care. Eleanor cared for both, whilst working as a Book-keeper locally, until their deaths in 1942 and 1947. In April 1948, she came to Grahamstown, and was admitted as a Postulant on Whitsunday, May 15th 1948.

As her professional skills were clerical, she was a much valued Secretary to the Principal of the Training College and a House Sister at Bangor. When Sister Joanne Mary was elected as Superior in January 1959 she appointed Sister Mary Eleanor as her Assistant, which Office she held until she succeeded Mother Joanna as Superior of the Community. She resigned this Office in January 1982, after a period of sixteen years and went to the London House of St Peter’s Bourne where her gifts of ministry, both spiritual and social, came to their real flowering. She was also artistically gifted, and expressed this gift not only with paint and brush, but also in many forms of dainty handwork. Everything she did was done with meticulous care – whether the household accounts, or dainty sprays of flowers worked in tatting or quilting.

Sister Mary Eleanor was a woman of strong character, very disciplined and a person of deep prayer, and had a great love for the Lord. She possessed a warm, loving personality, and gave of herself unstintingly to the needs of others. It was this loving warm-heartedness which so many people spoke about at the time of her death. She hoped to end her days in England, and her wish was granted. It is fitting that her Ashes lie in the Garden of Remembrance at All Saints Church, Whetstone, very near the house of St Peter’s Bourne, which she so dearly loved.

MOTHER VALERIE CR

Mother Valerie was born in the Province of Cordoba, Argentine. Bother her parents were English, and her childhood was spent on a large cattle ranch in Argentina. She was an excellent horsewoman. She was educated at St Hilda’s College on the outskirts of Buenos Aires, and upon completion of her education worked as a Bilingual English/Spanish Secretary in Buenos Aires, Madrid and


Page 7

Rhodesia. She was made a Novice of the Community in 1962 and in 1964 she joined the Grahamstown Training College Staff as House Sister of Canterbury House.

In January 1982 she was elected as the seventh Superior of the Community of the Resurrection of Our Lord.

She was a woman of strong character and was also far sighted in practical matters. It was during her superiorship that the Community Chapel was finally established in St Luke’s (the Infirmary) thus making it possible for all Sisters from the different Houses, and the elderly and infirm from St Luke’s, to meet together for daily Offices and the Eucharist.

She had a deep sense of her responsibilities as Superior and never spared herself in keeping in touch with the various Houses in Grahamstown and in spending time with the sick for whose comfort she always had a deep concern.

Sister had a great love for all animals, and her little dog Zola gave her much joy and pleasure right to the end of her life.

Sister was artistic and particularly good at caricatures, amusing herself at Synod Gatherings during long debates drawing interesting characters who were present there.

She died suddenly and peacefully on the evening of May 25th whilst her brother Humphrey and Sister Anne were attending Mass in the local Roman Catholic Church, after a long illness, bravely borne.

MOTHER NONIE CR

Nonie Mary Newey grew up on a farm in the Ciskei, educated mostly at home and entered Grahamstown Training College at the age of 233. She joined the Community in 1949 and had her first teaching post at the Good Shepherd School in Grahamstown and in 1952 joined Rhodes and graduated in 1953

with a Bachelor of Arts. Sister Nonie spent several years doing pastoral work in Grahamstown and Rhodesia eventually returning in 1960 to the Grahamstown Training College as a lecturer. She became principal of the Training College in 1963 but due to her increasing deafness had to retire early after only seven years.

Sister Nonie spent some years studying at St Paul’s Theological College (now the College of the Transfiguration in Grahamstown) and running the Retreat Centre through most of 1980’s until she was elected Superior in 1991. In 1993 she was made a Deacon and in 1994 ordained as a Priest and was able to take services in the College Chapel and until very recently was able to help regularly with the weekday services at the various Anglican Churches within Grahamstown.

(Sister Nonie was known as Sister Virginia whilst Principal of the Training College for seven years but subsequently reclaimed her baptismal name).

Sister Nonie lives with the Community in Grahamstown to this day.

MOTHER CAROL CR

Mother Carol is the current and ninth such Mother Superior of the Community of the Resurrection of Our Lord in Grahamstown. Though the Community has become much smaller than what it once was – their members still hold true to their original aims and the Life within the Community is very much alive and well.


Page 8

THE ORDER TODAY

The Community was founded in 1884 by Bishop Allan Becher Webb and Cecile Isherwood to undertake pastoral and educational work in Grahamstown. These two types of work, and later Social Welfare work, have predominated in the Community’s undertakings throughout its history. The regular life of monastic Offices and personal prayer and intercession has always been maintained, both in the Mother House (Grahamstown) and all branch houses, wherever situated. It is still maintained in Grahamstown, the only centre where the Community life continues, their numbers being now much reduced, with a high proportion of elderly and infirm members.

Two Retreat Centres established by this Community have been taken over by other Communities: St Peter’s Bourne in north London; and Hillandale, near Grahamstown, which has been taken over by the Order of the Holy Cross, an Anglican Benedictine community for men, based in the USA.

Two schools, staffed entirely by lay teachers, remain under the management of the Grahamstown Community, the Bethlehem Pre-School being the Community’s Centenary Project.

COATS OF ARMS

Rhodes University The University motto ‘Vis, virtus, veritas’, means ‘Strength, courage, truth’.

Heraldic description of the arms: Or on a Pile Sable an Open Book inscribed with the words ‘Sapientiam Exquiret Sapiens’ between three Escallops of the first. On a Chief Argent a Lion passant Gules between two Thistles slipped and leaved proper. And for the crest a Wreath of the Colours upon a Rock the Figure of a Man mounted on a Horse representing ‘energy’ all Argent.

Derivation of the coat of arms: Black and gold are the livery colours of the Graham family. The pile (inverted triangle) is

characteristic of the Graham coat of arms, as are the escallops (shells), an emblem of pilgrimage. The lion and two thistles were taken from the coat of arms granted posthumously to Cecil John Rhodes. The crest is a representation of the famous statue by Watts which forms part of the Rhodes Memorial in Cape Town. The open book is a common feature of the arms of a college or university e.g. Oxford University.

Allan Webb Hall The mitre on a blue field recalls that Allan Webb, after whom the Hall is named, was Bishop of Grahamstown from 1885 to 1895. The crossed keys, traditionally the heraldic symbol of St Peter, refer to the physical location of the Hall on St Peter's campus of Rhodes University; and also serve to recall that the buildings constituting the Hall were originally the property of the Community of the Resurrection.

The silver escallop shell is taken from the coat of arms of Rhodes University to emphasise that the Hall is an integral part of the University. The escallop was also the medieval symbol of the pilgrim; and by an extension of this concept, may be seen as symbolising the students of the Hall as being pilgrims seeking knowledge.


Page 12

The Houses The coats of arms of the four houses are all constructed on the same principle, viz a device symbolising the House dovetailed into a chief symbolising the Hall.

Canterbury House

Truro House

The blue cross, with the four plates (silver roundels) is taken from the coat of arms of the Archbishop of Canterbury, as depicted on a brass plaque in the entrance of Canterbury House.

The blue Fleur de Lis recalls that this heraldic charge appears in the coat of arms of the Diocese of Truro in Cornwall in England.

Salisbury House

Winchester House

The diadem is a representation of that which appears in the coat of arms of the diocese of Salisbury in England. In its form it is also like the heraldic charge called an "eastern crown"; and is thus a suitable charge for a house located in the Eastern Province of South Africa.

The gold sun charged with a rose which is half silver and half red is an adaptation of one of the charges appearing in the coat of arms of the Dean and Chapter of Winchester Cathedral in England.


Page 13

THE STAINED GLASS WINDOWS Installed and dedicated in 1994

Unless history is recorded, the courage and valiance of ordinary people against overwhelming odds is lost. In order to remember the work and sacrifice of this small band of Sisters, two beautiful stained glass windows were erected in the Mother Cecile Memorial Hall.

The windows, designed and executed by the well known artist Hunter Nesbitt, are an amazing combination of modern glass flowing out from the old traditional setting. These windows are amongst the finest in Africa if not the world.

The central turquoise and green sections symbolise the tree of life, growth and knowledge.

The panels alongside of small squares in browns and oranges symbolise the buildings and work achieved by the Community. Each Sister living and dead has her name and birth date on one of these squares.

There are six heralds at the bottom of the windows. The first is that of Canterbury House with a picture above it depicting the St Peter's Building. The second herald is that of

the old Training College badge. The third is that of Salisbury House topped with the picture of the Chapel of St Mary and all the Angels. The next window holds the Winchester House herald with a picture of a group of orphan children in mop caps. The next herald is that of the Hall. Lastly is the herald of Truro House with a picture of a Sister talking to a group of women in a rural area.

Right at the top are portraits of Mother Cecile CR and Bishop Webb. Lower down are two smaller windows. No longer residences in the area, they represent Bangor House, now the Divinity Department, and Lincoln House, now the Law Department.

Along the bottom is written "To the memory of Mother Cecile 1862-1906 and the Sisters of the Community of the Resurrection of Our Lord Grahamstown".

But "tradition is a stream to follow and not a pool to sit beside" and we hope that all the students who pass through the Hall will see them as a symbol of what can be achieved through determination, courage and sacrifice.

AW1.16. Damage to and Loss of University Property In the case of damage to, or loss of, University property the student or students responsible, if known, will be required to bear the cost and if not known, such cost will be charged either against a particular group of students or against the general fund of the body of students, i.e. House Committee Funds.

If any room or its contents (walls, doors, windows, floor, furniture, fittings, etc) is damaged in any way, the student occupant will be liable for the cost of repairs.

Room Statements must be completed as soon as possible after a student arrives in residence and must be handed to a sub-warden within one day of receipt. Failure to do so will result in the student concerned being held responsible for damage to and/or loss of property subsequently found.

NB: Special care must be exercised to avoid damaging parquet floors and carpets by flooding. In particular, taps must not be left on when the water supply is turned off. If you are not sure whether the tap is turned off take the plug out of the basin.

Any deficiencies or damage which may occur in a student's room while he/she is in occupation, and for which he/she is not responsible, shall be reported in writing to the


Page 19

House Warden by the student within 24 hours of its occurrence.

If the report mentioned above is not made it will be irrefutably presumed that the deficiencies or damage are the responsibility of the occupant of the room, who will be required to bear the cost thereof.

No student shall wilfully or negligently damage any property in Allan Webb Hall belonging to either the University, a member of staff or another student.

Damage done to any property of the University must be reported in writing to the House Warden by the person or persons responsible.

i. Reporting Damage and Faults Please report any damages, faults or maintenance problems to the Hall Secretary or your Warden.


Page 26

AW1.32. General Conduct and Discipline All students are required to conform to the rules of the University as published in the Student Disciplinary Code in the University Calendar.

These rules are supplementary to the Hall Rules and also offer a guideline to students.

Certain disciplinary powers have been delegated to members of the House Committee by the Hall Warden, with the approval of the Senate, to be used at their discretion.

Ignorance of the rules is no excuse.

a. General Conduct No student of Allan Webb Hall may engage in any form of conduct that may reasonably be regarded as bringing the Hall or residence into disrepute, be it on or off University campus.

Drunken and disorderly behaviour will not be tolerated. This type of behaviour could result in the student being excluded from the Hall or university.

You are reminded that drunkenness is an aggravating circumstance NOT a mitigating circumstance.

b. Rights

Before any disciplinary action is taken against you, you have the right:

i. to be given the particulars of the alleged disciplinary offence;

ii. to two days notice of the disciplinary hearing (only if you are denying the charge);

iii. to elect to be tried by a Hall or House Disciplinary Committee (see Student Disciplinary Code);

iv. to put forward your side of the story to the Warden, Sub-Warden; etc.

v. to have a friend with you at the hearing.

c. Sentences Fines, exclusions and/or community service may be imposed at the discretion of the Hall or House Wardens, Sub-Wardens, Disciplinary Sub-Committee of the Hall Committee or House Committees for infringements of these rules in accordance with the authority delegated to them by the Hall Warden in terms of the Student Disciplinary Code. The maximum penalties that may be imposed are:

i. Hall Warden or Hall Disciplinary Committee = 10% of the BA fee per offence; exclusion from residence in the hall, community service.

iii. Sub-wardens - 50% of the House Wardens maximum.

NOTE: All monies collected as fines go towards student transport.

d. Review If you consider that:

i. the penalty imposed on you is so excessive as to be unjust;

ii. the facts found proved do not constitute an offence; or

iii. that you have been prejudiced by not being afforded your rights in AW1.32.b above (and other similar complaints)

you may have the matter reviewed by the Hall Warden and, thereafter, if you so wish by a Proctor. Speak to your Warden, Sub-Warden or Senior Student immediately if you wish to take a matter on review.

It is a serious disciplinary offence to give false or incorrect information when a student is asked by a senior member of the University staff including a Campus Protection Officer/Guard to supply his/her name and/or place of residence to such person.


Page 27

e. Aiding and Abetting It is an offence for students to aid and abet other students to break the rules of the University.

AW1.33. House Meetings Meetings of the House may be called by the Hall or House Warden or their delegates or, with the approval of the House Warden, the Senior Student of Hall or the Senior Student of the House.

Attendance at House Meetings is compulsory unless prior permission is obtained from the House Warden before the meeting. Only academic commitments (e.g. Tests) and other valid extra-murals will be deemed a valid excuse. Activities such as gym/aerobics will not be deemed as a valid excuse.

AW1.34. Housekeeping Services

a. Laundry Each residence has its own laundry facility equipped with at least one washing machine and a tumble-dryer.

A student may book time slots to use the machines by recording their name on the booking sheet/book provided. Failure to take up a booking within 10 minutes of the start of the time slot will result in the booking becoming void.

It is the responsibility of the students to familiarize themselves with the correct operation of the laundry equipment. The Laundry Room should be left in a clean and tidy state at all times. Problems, faults, abuse or misuse should be reported immediately to the person responsible for the Laundry Room or to a Sub-Warden.

Abuse or misuse of Laundry Room equipment may result in Laundry Room privileges being removed.

Residences also have their own outside washing lines - no clothing may be hung out of windows. Students are advised not to leave their washing on washing lines at night.

Laundry facilities are for the use of students of the residence – NO washing may be done for people outside the residence.

b. Linen Students are responsible for making their own beds.

A clean bed sheet and a pillow case may be exchanged once a week at the Linen Room during the times stated below. The duvet cover and pillow case may be exchanged once every second week.

Any illness must be reported to the Warden. If you are admitted to the hospital or sanatorium please make sure that the Warden is informed.

Ill students may not stay in residence for longer than 24 hours without seeing the sanatorium sister.

AW1.36. Imprisonment The South African Police will treat you as citizens of South Africa whilst you are in Grahamstown – just like you would be treated anywhere else in South Africa. Being a student does not exempt you from the law of the land. Being a small town – our Police Service like to make themselves quite visible.

We would like to offer the following advice:

a. Serious Crime (including driving under the influence)

In order to arrest you, the police must

i. have seen you commit an offence or

ii. reasonably believe that you have committed an offence or

iii. reasonably believe that you are about to commit an offence.


Page 28

When the police arrest you they must

i. at the time inform you of the charge against you.

ii. As soon as is possible they must deliver you to a police station, place of safety or magistrate's court where the charge can formally be laid against you. They may not drive you around Grahamstown until their van is full of suspects.

iii. As soon as is possible you must be informed of your right to apply for bail.

iv. If you are detained (as opposed to being charged), you may only be detained for a maximum of 48 hours, that is, for two days, "days" being court days. Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays are not court days. You will usually be detained until only for as long as it is necessary for you to be fit to return to public.

v. Your rights must be read out to you as soon as is possible, during or immediately after the arrest, in a language that you understand. Alternatively they will be given to you in writing, in a language that you understand.

b. Being drunk or disorderly in public You should be aware that the law says that it is illegal to be drunk OR disorderly in public.

In order to arrest you, the police must

i. have seen you commit an offence or

ii. reasonably believe that you have committed an offence or

iii. reasonably believe that you are about to commit an offence.

When the police arrest you they must

i. at the time inform you of the charge against you.

ii. As soon as is possible they must deliver you to a police station, place of safety or magistrate's court where the charge can formally be laid against you. They may not drive you around Grahamstown until their van is full of suspects.

iii. If you are detained (as opposed to being charged), you may only be detained for at least 4 hours to sober-up, or more depending upon your state of drunkenness.

iv. Your rights must be read out to you as soon as is possible, during or immediately after the arrest, in a language that you understand. Alternatively they will be given to you in writing, in a language that you understand.

v. Releases will seldom take place during the night.

vi. Fines of between R50-R100 may be issued.

Failure on the part of the police to abide by these rules gives rise to an action for either or both of wrongful arrest and unlawful detention.

If at all possible, ask to be put in a cell with other students. There is no obligation on the police to do this; but it is better for all concerned. Don't ask for a cell alone if you can help it. Witnesses are the key to most legal matters. You are advised not to sign papers without legal representation. Exceptions to this will be signing property receipts and written explanations of your rights (see iv above).

Note: When going out, whether a man or a woman, whether with the intention of getting drunk or not, whether actually drunk or not, whether walking or not, go with a friend.

At least one of you should stay sober, in order to drive, support a staggering friend, attempt to persuade the police that you'll take care of your friend, to call someone in authority to release your friend if they are arrested and so forth.

We suggest that if you find yourself in a situation where you have been brought to the Police Station – phone your Warden. Depending on the time of your phone call they may not be their chirpy selves – but they really would much rather come and help you.
