The university was sited at Turfloop farm about 40 kilometres (25 mi) east of <a href="/wiki/Pietersburg" class="mw-redirect" title="Pietersburg">Pietersburg</a>. The town that grew around the university was named Sovenga, for the three ethnic groups (<a href="/wiki/Sotho-Tswana" class="mw-redirect" title="Sotho-Tswana">Sotho</a>, <a href="/wiki/Venda_people" title="Venda people">Venda</a>, <a href="/wiki/Tsonga_people" title="Tsonga people">Tsonga</a>) that <a href="/wiki/Apartheid" title="Apartheid">Apartheid</a> ideology intended to study there. In reality, most inhabitants refer to the town as Mankweng, after one of the chiefs of the area. Under later apartheid, the University of the North served as a "model" university where dignitaries were brought to show the "viability" of the separate facilities. As such, it received heavy government subsidies, but the real problem was that the students that the university supposedly served were so under-resourced in their standard education that the quality of instruction was placed under incredible demands. </p><p>The university was a centre of resistance to apartheid in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s with the <a href="/wiki/SADF" class="mw-redirect" title="SADF">SADF</a> occupying the grounds often during those years. After the end of apartheid, the university struggled through various re-organization and rationalization schemes, yet always managed to survive. Enrollment fluctuated wildly in the years after liberation and while some faculty did not transition very easily, others were able to seize upon the new opportunities.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The University of Limpopo is the result of a merger between the former Medical University of Southern Africa and the University of the North, which occurred on 1 January 2005.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The extension of University Education Act of 1959 made provision for the establishment of racially exclusive universities for black South Africans.
