Robert Balfour, the head of school languages at the University of
KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN), says the institution's introduction of isiZulu as an
additional medium of instruction is a key aspect of transformation. The
university's approval of the policy is in line with the education
department's Higher Education Act. It requires higher education
institutions to determine and publish a language policy.

Balfour says the policy is a rational one.
