USING the words of former president Nelson Mandela, Professor Barney Pityana will be "retiring from retirement" when he steps down as rector of the Grahamstown College of Transfiguration at the end of the year.

Pityana, who started at the college in 2011, said his immediate plan was to continue assisting the college for another six months to help settle in his replacement, Dr Vicencia Kgabe.

"After that, I am hoping to spend about a year or two overseas. I have applied for some research fellowships at European universities. In the short term I am committed to researching and writing and, hopefully, publishing a book or two." - Thulani Gqirana
