Yesterday we looked at the formals. Today, itโ€™s time for the gear youโ€™ll spot all across campus. ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Whether itโ€™s a sports match, an arts event, a campus activity, or just another day at NWU, Tassers wear their informals with pride.

The events may be taking a break during recess, but the pride that comes with wearing Veritas colours never does.

No matter where a Tasser finds himself, these colours remind him of the house he represents.๐Ÿ”ด

Die aktiwiteite rus dalk vir die vakansie, maar Veritas-trots vat nooit af nie!

While the jackets may be hanging in the cupboard during recess, every Tasser knows that Monday mornings look a little different at Veritas. ๐Ÿ”ฅ

One of our proud traditions is wearing formal attire every Monday, with each year group carrying its own distinctive look and identity.

More than just clothing, these formals represent growth, responsibility, and the journey through Veritas. From your first Battlesuit to carrying a cane, each stage tells part of the Tasser story.

For now, the formals may be enjoying the holiday as much as the men wearing them, but come Semester 2, theyโ€™ll be back where they belong. ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Van die Battlesuit tot by die kierie, elke fase van Veritas het sy eie tradisie. ๐Ÿฆ…

Thank you, Oom Leslie, for your guidance, wisdom, support and the care you show to every man who calls Veritas home. ๐Ÿ’ฅ

Your presence, encouragement, and willingness to invest in the lives of students do not go unnoticed.
We are grateful for everything you do for our house and wish you a blessed Fatherโ€™s Day. โค๏ธ

Leadership doesnโ€™t only happen in residences and student organisations, it also happens within our faculties!

These Tassers serve on the Student Academic Chapters (SACs), where they help shape student life, represent the interests of their fellow student and contribute to the academic environment within their respective faculties especially during this past exam season.๐Ÿ’ฅ

POV: Mom said we have Durban at home. ๐Ÿ˜‚

After a semester of assignments, tests and exams, the Tassers have finally earned a bit of time off.

Whether youโ€™re heading to the coast, staying in Potch or spending the holiday at home, enjoy the break. Youโ€™ve earned it.๐Ÿ˜ค

While most students are spending recess catching their breath after exams, these Tassers are still putting in the work. ๐Ÿ’ฅ

Training sessions donโ€™t stop when the semester does. Whether itโ€™s on the track, the field, the pitch, or the court, these men continue to represent Veritas and NWU long after the lecture halls have emptied.

While the rest of us enjoy a well-deserved break, these men are still chasing personal bests, preparing for competition, and proudly wearing the NWU badge. ๐Ÿฆ…

We are proud of the Tassers who continue to represent Veritas at the highest level of university sport.

A new initiative was born in Veritas this year. ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Meet the Red Caps, our official spirit committee.

Whether itโ€™s a sport match, an arts performance or any opportunity to back the Tassers, these men are there to lead the gees before, during and after the event. ๐Ÿ’ฅ

The caps may be hanging in the residence while the Tassers tackle exams, but come Semester 2 theyโ€™ll be back where they belong!

The Red Caps are the heartbeat of the crowd, the voice behind the chants and the men making sure that Veritas is always heard. ๐Ÿฆ…

Even during exam season, they continue to serve the student body and help shape student life at the NWU.

We are proud to say that Veritas is home to some of the universityโ€™s most dedicated student leaders and we encourage our men to stand up, get involved, and make a difference. ๐Ÿ”ฅ
