Alumni Association
Upon graduation, graduates automatically become members of Daystar University Alumni Association (DUAA), which is solely run by the alumni through an executive committee elected annually. Through Daylink, a recently launched job placement centre, the graduates place their CVs with the centre, thus creating a link between the employers and Daystar graduates. DUAA has various initiatives among them the Somesha (Kiswahili for Educate) Scholarship Fund that aims at mobilizing resources for students who are unable to pay their fees. One way of doing this is through fund-raising dinners lined up for the year.

Famous quotes containing the word association:
“It is not merely the likeness which is precious ... but the association and the sense of nearness involved in the thing ... the fact of the very shadow of the person lying there fixed forever! It is the very sanctification of portraits I think—and it is not at all monstrous in me to say ... that I would rather have such a memorial of one I dearly loved, than the noblest Artist’s work ever produced.”
—Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)
