2NATIONAL ANTHEM
Nkosi sikelel’ iAfrika
Maluphakanyisw’ uphondolwayo,
Yizwa imithandazo yethu,
Nkosi sikelela, thina lusapho lwayo.
Morena boloka etjhaba sa heso,
O fedise dintwa la matshwenyeho,
O se boloke,
O se boloke setjhaba sa heso,
Setjhaba sa South Afrika – South Afrika.
Uit die blou van onse hemel,
Uit die diepte van ons see,
Oor ons ewige gebergtes,
Waar die kranse antwoord gee,
Sounds the call to come together,
And united we shall stand,
Let us live and strive for freedom,
In South Africa our land.

4DISTINGUISHED TEACHER AWARD
The Distinguished Teacher Award, given one only to an individual, recognises teaching at any or all levels by a
member of the faculty that has made a significant and lasting impression on students.
Previous recipients in the Faculty of Commerce have been:
2001 N Nattrass (Economics)
2009 C Fourie (Education Development Unit, Commerce)
2013 P Maughan (College of Accounting)
2014 LC Ronnie (Graduate School of Business)
2015 J Kew (College of Accounting)
The following member of the Faculty of Commerce has been chosen for this award in 2017:
Associate Professor Jimmy Winfield
College of Accounting
Jimmy combines the best of many teaching worlds. He has taught students of every age from 10 to 60. At UCT,
for each of the past few years, he has lectured at least 1 800 students for at least 18 hours in at least six different
courses for the College of Accounting, the Philosophy Department, and the Graduate School of Business. These
vast numbers reveal incredible versatility: on any given day, he teaches first-years, final-years, graduates, mature
students, debits and credits, Kant and ubuntu.
Another remarkable element of Jimmy’s teaching is his capacity and energy for well-placed innovation. He
has been a driving force behind the creation of three new courses, including Business Ethics, now taken by
virtually every Commerce student. He also constantly finds ways to improve his students’ experience, such as
the enormously successful JumpStart intervention to help vulnerable first-year Accounting students; and novel
systems to motivate students to identify how much homework to do and to help them maximise their learning
while doing it.
Jimmy’s boldest aim is to treat each of the students in his huge classrooms as an individual. He explicitly
embraces the rich diversity of students; he reassures them that each is profoundly worthy of his time and respect;
he encourages confidence, no matter who you are; he is obsessive about using clear, unambiguous and accessible
language; he invites questions, and is meticulous about answering them; he asks questions, and listens just as
closely to the answers; he acknowledges the many ways he went wrong as a student; and he always does his best
to speak to a few hundred people as if he is talking to just one.

5DISTINGUISHED TEACHER AWARD (CONTINUED)
In return, his students consistently give him great evaluations. One remarked: “Teachers are a dime a dozen,
but an educator is something more. An educator takes a holistic approach to their students’ learning process.
Jimmy Winfield is an educator.” Another noted: “He has the unique ability to make lectures about the somewhat
dry concepts of accounting entertaining and engaging, as he incorporates real-world examples accompanied by
a healthy dose of humour into each session”. Colleague Jean Luyt added “Jimmy is one of the most dedicated
educators I have worked with. He is dynamic, innovative, and thorough in all that he does. He does his best to
provide the necessary environment for students to thrive.”
Jimmy Winfield is meticulous, conscientious, and scrupulous. He exhibits excellent judgment, and deals with
complex problems, including students’ personal difficulties, in a wise and reasonable manner. Thus his commitment
and passion for teaching and learning is visible inside and outside of the classroom. For all these reasons and more,
he is a worthy recipient of the 2016 Distinguished Teacher’s Award.

19Welcome, Wamkelekile, Welkom – today is not the end of your relationship with the university
but the beginning of a new phase in your continuing relationship with UCT, one that
you share with the UCT community of over 100 000 alumni.
Diverse as this community is, the shared experiences of a critical academic ethos
and a spectacular campus make for a strong network that has a wide footprint,
not only in South Africa, but across the continent and the globe.
We set a great store by our links with our alumni, and indeed the links alumni have with
each other. We promise that we will be in touch, and ask you in turn to let us know
not only your current contact details but also, from time to time, something
of your lives and where you are in your careers.
Updates can be done on the web – http://www.uct.ac.za/dad/alumni/update/
- or by writing to the Alumni Office, UCT, PB X3 Rondebosch 7701
or by contacting us on (27) (21) 650 3746.
Your alma mater looks forward to welcoming you back,
whether to a public lecture, a leadership forum, your class reunion,
or just an informal call!
