In this Grad Week 2025 episode, we sit down with Mophethi Mabeba, who graduated with her Bachelor of Arts in Humanities — a journey marked by quiet determination, steady growth, and perseverance.
Joined in studio by her mom, Mabel, Mophethi reflects on the real journey behind the degree: the expectations she arrived with, the challenges she pushed through, the moments that shaped her, and the people who stood by her throughout her time at Stellenbosch. The conversation is filled with warmth, gratitude, and proud family reflection.
Recorded on 12 December 2025 as part of MFM 92.6’s Grad Week 2025 series, this episode goes beyond the qualification to explore belonging, resilience, and what being a Matie has meant to Mophethi — including her favourite part of being a Matie and the values she now carries into life beyond campus.
Once a Matie, always a Matie.
