Reflections of South African Student Leaders 1994-2017 brings together the reflections of twelve former SRC leaders from across the landscape of South African universities. Each student leader’s reflections are presented in a dedicated chapter that draws closely on an interview conducted in the course of 2018/19 which was followed by an interactive process of co-editing, correcting, and approving the chapter between the researchers and the student leaders.Key topics covered in the chapters are:Personal background and context of getting involved in student leadershipRole as member of the SRC and the role of the SRC in the universitySupport received from the university and student affairsStudent governance model, SRC electoral system, and inductionThe involvement of partisan student organisations and political parties in the SRCRelationship with the student body, communication, conscientisation and mobilisationStudent representation in university governance structures (‘co-operative governance’)Main challenges, student issues and demandsStrategies and tactics of student politics, representation and activismReflections on the 2015/16 student movement: #RhodesMustFall, #FeesMustFall, #EndOutsourcing, etc.Lessons for current and future student leadersThe biographical impact of the student leadership experience
