Welcome to Desmond Tutu Hall

Welcome to the University’s newest Hall on campus, Desmond Tutu Hall. Officially named on 7 March 2012, Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu himself graced the official opening ceremony. The Hall consists of four houses; Margaret Smith House, Ellen Kuzwayo House, Amina Cachalia House and the only male residence, Calata House.  

Our Hall Warden Swantje Zschernack, is a humble, friendly and enthusiastic lady who is always willing to go the extra mile for the Hall. For further information about any of the residences or Desmond Tutu Hall, please e-mail Swantje on s.zschernack@ru.ac.za.
