This list will totally change the way you see
universities in Kenya whether you are in K.U, UON, MOI, or even Strathmore
university!
1. Go for a class trip
Universities in Kenya usually organize class trips so that
students can experience learning in the real world. Even though most of these
tours are not very ‘academic’ you are likely to have the best experience ever.
Bonding with your classmates in a completely different setting is going to be
so much fun.
2 Join a club
There are so many clubs that you can join depending on your
interest, but just make sure you join one. Be an active member of the club
because it’s going to be a good way to get away from all the studying and meet
new people.
3. Campaign for your favorite student leader
One of the most significant activities in most universities
in Kenya is the election period. Some of your friends or classmates may vie for
a seat in the student body and you can do some campaigns for them. Campaigning
for someone is tough work, but it’s a great experience all the same.
4. Live inside campus
While most students, especially those in public universities
in Kenya, are given rooms in campus in the first year, many other institutions
don’t accommodate so many students in campus. But you should look for a way to
get accommodation inside campus and just know what it feels like to live so
close to school.
5. Attend fresher’s bash
Fresher’s bash is where all the first year students are
invited to celebrate as they are being ushered into campus life. In most
universities in Kenya, not so many good things come out of these parties. But
it’s good to know what the experience is like before you leave campus.
6 . Visit the library
It shouldn’t be a surprise that some students leave
universities in Kenya without having stepped in the library. So make sure you
visit the University’s library and not just to see how it looks but go and
study there and just feel the experience. You may end up liking it.
7. Get involved in some kind of performance
Most universities in Kenya have clubs that offer students a
chance to get involved in performances. You can participate in the next pageant
or drama activity or even dance. Whatever it is, give yourself the opportunity
to showcase your talent. You never know, you might be the next big thing in
campus.
8. Dance all night
This doesn’t mean get drunk and do all the bad things you
can think of. Just spend a night, preferably after your exams, to go out
dancing with your favorite friends. Try being sober the whole night and just
enjoy the music and each other’s company.
9. Do something for charity
Whether it means visiting a children’s home or setting up a
fundraising to help the less privileged students raise their fees, doing
something for a good cause should be on your to-do-list.
10. Invite your parents
Wouldn’t it be nice if your parents came in and you gave them a tour of your university? Well, most people wouldn’t do that for one reason or the other by it still sounds like something they’ll really enjoy. You’re not doing it for yourself but for them. As you plan on joining or finishing your studies at any of the universities in Kenya, consider doing all these 10 activities to make the entire experience fun.
