The Concerned Association of Parents and Others For Tertiary Education at Universities turned to the courts at the time to compel NMMU to open its doors in the face of violent FeesMustFall protests.

The institution, which was closed for about a month, abided by the court order and has since put alternative measures in place to ensure learning and exams go ahead and .
