INTERNAL ATTACHMENT FOR THE SECOND YEARS

The attachment period for the Second years started at a slow pace which was unexpected to most of the students....Although the department was understaffed(for lack of a better word) maybe most of them still nursing the January blues, so to speak. With most students still shocked with the introduction of new software being used for the attachment period like Erdas Imagine 9.2 and also Quantum GIS.  The students also seemed to be in a rush to get the software and install them on their newly acquired laptops as there has a notable increase in the number of laptops in the class, that aside the lecturer who is new to the students, Mr Masden started on a low note not in a hurry to rush knowledge into our heads but the students appreciated him as per the comments I got around. The task also that is at hand is being taken seriously by the students although the class is half full, but most students anticipate the field work sessions because they have been praised by the third year students who are now busy at various organizations undertaking their external attachment.

  Enough being said for the Second Years who are now the incumbent seniors the first years are also back in session but busy complaining about when their going to end their tenure withe infamous Dr. Alphonse Niyibizi because it seems he is getting onto their nerves......but wait, word of advice to them is that they should forget about him being a pain and concentrate on studying at least that is how the second years and third years got through that stage.......all in all its good that we are back to school at least the parties and social gatherings are noted during the weekends.......Happy New Year from the team and keep it here for GIS and GEGIS related issues.
