Proefskrif (D. Phil.) -- Universiteit van Stellenbosch, 1935

In 1929 Craven enrolled at Stellenbosch University in the Western Cape. He initially registered as a theology student,[8] but later switched to Social Sciences and Social Anthropology.[13] The switch was prompted by medical advice after his vocal chords were damaged by a kick to the throat while he tried to stop charging forwards during the 1932 test against Scotland.[1]

Craven lodged in Wilgenhof Men's Residence, following in the footsteps of his maternal grandfather, George Nathaniel Hayward (18861977). In 1903 Hayward had been one of Wilgenhof's first residents.[15] An all-round athlete, Craven represented his university in rugby, swimming (captain), water polo and baseball. He also participated in track and field, and played cricket, tennis, and soccer.[2]

Craven obtained his BA (1932) as well as a MA (1933) and PhD (1935) in ethnology at Stellenbosch. His PhD dissertation was titled Ethnological Classification of the South African Bantu. His third doctorate was for his thesis on Evolution of Modern Games.[16] He was appointed as Stellenbosch's first professor of physical education in 1949, and served in that capacity until 1975.[2] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danie_Craven)
