Campuses
The Somali National University had three main campuses: the first campus, Gaheyr, opened in 1954 and was located at KM 6. There were also new expansion buildings across from Gaheyr Campus. The new buildings took some years to complete and were situated on the other side of the Afgoi road, facing Gaheyr.
Most of the new buildings had some sort of circular design to them, and the engineer who designed them was unofficially nicknamed "Engineer O" by the students. The lights from the lamp posts on the Somali National University's campus grounds added to the bright lights of Mogadishu.
The SNU campuses were:
- Gaheyr - Mogadishu at KM6
- Digfeer - Medicine school near Digfeer Hospital in Mogadishu
- Lafoole Teaching College - Lafoole
