It is with great sadness that the Department of Statistics shares the tragic news of the untimely passing of one of our former colleagues, Dr Jaap van Wyk (Rhodes University, 2012-2013). The staff and students of the department morn his untimely passing. The enthusiasm of his lectures and his tendency to flip his lesson to include current, relevant examples is very fondly remembered by his students.

 

We offer our heartfelt condolences to Professor Tertius and Lynette de Wet on the passing of their son Chris.
