Stellenbosch disciplinary panel slams toxic ‘bed-flipping’ culture after student room invasion.

Two Stellenbosch University students have been expelled from all university residences after admitting to entering a fellow student's room without permission and removing his bed, mattresses and couch following a heated inter-residence football match.

In a judgment handed down by the university's Central Disciplinary Committee (CDC) found the two students guilty of misconduct linked to the incident at Majuba Residence on March 2.

The committee ordered their immediate expulsion from all Stellenbosch University accommodation, 50 hours of community service, and barred them from holding leadership positions during the 2026/27 term.

The students' names have been withheld because they are involved in disciplinary proceedings.
