Dear Jomo Kenyatta,

I believe that we are not acquainted yet. This is because we are from the future, modern day Kenya. You would not believe how much has changed. TVs are now in colour, and we have a new Constitution, promulgated in 2010. It vests all power in the people and is praised to have autochthonous aspirations and an admirably progressive Bill of Rights.

The Contribution of Alliance High School to the Leadership of Post-Colonial Kenya

Session Overview

On Tuesday, 31^st March, 2026, we, the members of the Avid Readers Forum converged at the Professorial Boardroom in our prestigious law school for the final Agora session of the semester. The meeting featured an audio-visual presentation, ‘Making of a Nation’, a documentary by Hillary Ng’weno centered on the legacy of Alliance High School (AHS) and its long-term impact on Kenyan governance. We held a discussion on the historical influence of Alliance High School on the leadership and political landscape of Kenya, noting that AHS celebrated its centenary on 1^st March, 2026.

This report presents a structured account of the Avid Readers’ session on the short story ‘Papa, Snake and I’, moderated by Billheart Braxtone on 17 March 2026. The session focused on analysing the major events, themes, and lessons derived from the narrator’s encounters with the snake referred to as “Snake.” The discussion examined how the narrator’s perception evolves from fear to understanding through repeated observation of the snake’s behaviour.

When it comes to outshining themselves, Kabarak Law Students seem to have a knack. Sharing a stage with a seasoned Kenyan artist during the Cultural Week Gala Night pales in comparison with having your writing dominate the subject of discourse in the same arena as renowned authors such as Chinua Achebe. Our very own Billheart Braxtone shared in this honor when discussions of the Avid Readers’ Forum were directed by his The Day Christianity was Banned in Africa.

Kabarak University joined four Kenyan universities in a significant strategic engagement aimed at strengthening academic collaboration with Millersville University. The initial joint meeting, held on February 11, 2026, was convened by the Embassy of Kenya in Washington, D.C. and brought together Kenyan institutions currently partnering with Millersville University to network, share updates, and align their collaboration frameworks for greater impact.

The School of Business and Economics (SBE) has officially concluded its five-day intensive training on converting curricula from Knowledge-Based Education to Competency-Based Education (CBE), marking a significant milestone in Kabarak University’s ongoing academic transformation journey.
