(ARDRI University of Forthare, 1983) Elston le Roux
Well, equipped darkroom has been established, including a sophisticated process camera capable of producing photographic plates for printing maters and enlarging or reducing maps and diagram for reproduction. This together with the word processor and adequate droughting facilities have made possible the creation of the Ardri document center which will now produce all the institutes documents and is available on commission to outside bodies.
Fort Hare is the University that is situated on the threshold of the independent homeland of the Xhosa tribes-the, the Transkei, and it is therefore the task of this University to give direction and guidance to not only the political development of the Transkei, but also to the economic and social progress of the territory. Five years have elapsed since the first Transkeian Government occupied the Bunga, and the Economic Society of Fort Hare considered it its task to create an opportunity to examine and discuss the economic development of the Transkei critically from different points of view. This symposium has also been organised to make the Transkeian inhabitants aware of what has already been accomplished economically and what is expected of them in terms of their contribution to the economic growth of their homeland.
