I believe that at our age, it’s a season of transition, from being dependent youths to responsible, productive adults. Starting Solomon’s Impeccable Looks was my way of creating financial independence, employment opportunities for others, and a platform for social impact.

The holiday season is a time for celebration, relaxation, and new experiences. From family gatherings and festive traditions to travel and personal growth, everyone’s holiday story is unique. Michael Ainomugisha spoke to several students to find out how they spent their holidays and the highlights of their festive season. Here’s what they had to say

Since the Global5K (blame it on Covid) hasn’t been an annual event (having been held 6 times in the last 9 years), here is my brief “origin” story of the Global5K that was my first Uganda Partners contribution when our family moved from the Uganda Christian University (UCU),  Mukono campus, back to the United States.

As the Advent semester of 2023 began, Uganda Christian University welcomed the enthusiastic footfall of students among the colourful rustle of leaves. As new and familiar faces converged on campus, united by goals and dreams, excitement permeated the air. Accommodation finds a home within the Sabiti, Nsimbabi, and PDR Halls of Residence, providing comfort and a sense of belonging to first-year students. The university began another chapter of shared learning with the promise of knowledge and growth, where halls echoed with laughter, friendships were formed, and the future’s canvas awaited the strokes of these bright brains.

Freddie Mercury “A concert is not a live rendition of our album. It’s a theatrical event. I have fun with my clothes onstage; it’s not a concert you’re seeing, it’s a fashion show.” The Uganda Christian University (UCU), department of Visual Arts and Design, organised a fashion concert led by students who displayed their artistic creation through clothes along the runway in Nkoyoiyo Hall. Yasiri J. Kasango and Andrew Bugembe captured some moments.

Art, according to Thomas Merton, allows us to both find and lose ourselves. Fine art is a valuable approach to appreciate our community and our life. Students from the Ecole Francaise Internationale de Kampala were hosted by the Uganda Christian University (UCU) department of visual arts and design, which is part of the faculty of engineering, design, and technology.

Uganda Christian University (UCU) continues to expand its reach beyond the African continent, thanks to the late January-mid February 2023 visit of the Vice Chancellor, Assoc. Professor Aaron Mushengyezi, in the Northeast, Midwest and Southeast regions of the United States.

Following the official close of the Advent semester 2022, the 24th Guild government, both on Main campus and Kampala campus, organized a two-day trip to the naturally gifted western Uganda districts, with the support of the Dosa’s office, to loosen up a bit and have some time off their duties.
