Daystar is a Christian liberal arts university in Nairobi, Kenya.
Daystar's original campus is close to Nairobi city centre, but there is no room to expand at that location. Therefore, in the last decade a new campus has been built at Athi River, some 40 km to the south-east of the city, on the Mombasa Road. This development has been largely as a result of the hard work of the former Vice Chancellor, Prof. Stephen Talitwala. The current acting Vice Chancellor is Rev. Prof. James Kombo.
The university continues to produce graduates who are serving in various capacities in Africa.

Famous quotes containing the word university:
“Television ... helps blur the distinction between framed and unframed reality. Whereas going to the movies necessarily entails leaving one’s ordinary surroundings, soap operas are in fact spatially inseparable from the rest of one’s life. In homes where television is on most of the time, they are also temporally integrated into one’s “real” life and, unlike the experience of going out in the evening to see a show, may not even interrupt its regular flow.”
—Eviatar Zerubavel, U.S. sociologist, educator. The Fine Line: Making Distinctions in Everyday Life, ch. 5, University of Chicago Press (1991)
