WordPress Campus Connect reached Bulamogi College Gadumire in rural eastern Uganda. The team arrived to find no electricity, so the planned hands-on demos gave way to something different. Over 100 students filled the room, opened their exercise books, and kept the questions coming for hours. The visit happened because a former student named Mariam Nairuba asked the organizers to bring Campus Connect to her old school. https://events.wordpress.org/campusconnect/2026/central-eastern-ug/?p=1242
