Ashwin Willemse graduates from Wits with a Quota distinction!
Cape Town - SuperSport analyst Ashwin Willemse has graduated from the University of Witwatersrand with a Masters degree and a distinction.
It has been over six weeks since Willemse infamously walked off the SuperSport studio during a Super Rugby production, accusing fellow analysts Naas Botha and Nick Mallett of "patronising" and "undermining" him.
None of the three parties have appeared on air since then, with Willemse now set to take the matter to the Equality Court, insisting that racism was at the core of the stand-off.
Willemse has not said anything publicly since the incident and would not engage with SuperSport in the broadcaster's own investigation into the incident.
But, on Thursday, the former Springbok wing made a rare public post on social media by tweeting a picture of himself graduating.
Wits then also tweeted a picture of Willemse and his wife, Michelle, who had also graduated with a degree in philosophy.
The university said that Willemse had graduated with a "Masters of Management in Entrepreneurship and New Venture Creation".
-What a joke. No one can take a degree in entrepreneurship- it is something that can only be learnt from real life experience- otherwise, the professors/doctors would all be billionaires......
It is possible to learn marketing or accountancy, but entrepreneurship is only gained by real-life experience. It is a skill that less than 5% of the world population has. It is not something that can be bought or sold.
University is only a step, not the end in itself... It can teach you theory and some practice, but no way that someone can learn new venture creation - especially as the professors doing the training have no real life experience of this themselves.
