I
’m impressed by the feedback we have got fromour readers, boththe criticism andthe encouragementare indications of a general accep-tance. For the pastone year that the current editorial board
has been in ofce, ranks have been broken
and links created, Norms ignored and newrules put in place, all to come up with your current Student Engineer Journal. As we,the outgoing editorial board, celebrate our 
third and nal edition as a sign of how far 
the journal has come, the new team hasno alternative but to focus on the future.The core function of the journal has remainedlinkage between the students, lecturers andthe industrialists. The extent by which thishas been achieved is for you the readership todecide. It’s however with much pleasure thatI wish to inform that our efforts have wonus recognition as not only the best student journal in Eastern Africa but also among the

 best technological journals in the region.The student engineer was not the onlygood thing happening to the school of engineering. The fabrication laboratory
also landed. Situated at the ground oor 
of the mechanical engineering depart-ment until otherwise decided, Fablab isexpected to offer a great practical learn-ing experience in engineering fabrica-tion. Read on about it on our feature story.I extend my heartfelt appreciation to allthose who have made this edition a suc-cess; our sponsors for their unwaveringsupport and members of the editorial board for their hard work and dedica-tion. Special thanks to Eng. Archie
McCorkindale and nally congratu
-lations to our readers, because with-out you, it would not have happened.Enjoy the April-June issue of the Student Engineer.
