Abstract:	The South African Students' Congress (SASCO) was formed in 1991 through the merging of the South African National Students Congress (a revolutionary black student organisation) and the National Union of South African Students (a predominantly white liberal student organisation). The new Congress was founded on the following five principles: African leadership, working class leadership, democracy, non-racism and non-sexism. The main aim of SASCO is transformation of the country's tertiary institutions.
