You are right.
One can hardly recognise Makerere we left behind.
So many new buildings and departments. Must have used up all those empty green spaces which were there. But it looks beautiful.
It’s expanded widely in terms of courses it offers now. Some buildings are very modern architecturally.
I did remember the main library and entrance to Mary Stuart Hall, the Arts Department but not much.
Thanks for sharing.

Great video 

I recognised many of the buildings although a lot of new ones have come up. Also they have taken up a lot of the green spaces we had - which is to be expected. I even refinished the weather station where I used to take readings every day and turn in the data sheets to the Geography Department

Really nostalgic
