Nelson Mandela Building 1
Nelson Mandela Building 1
A highly respected South African Activist and leader winner of the 1993 Nobel peace
prize, an international symbol of resistance to apartheid. He became the first black
south African president after he wisely led exemplary negotiation for an end to
apartheid.
This building is decided to be named after Nelson Mandela by the university senate
in 2009. On this building there are classrooms and administrative offices. It is a
center for students with disabilities.
There are 4 branches in this building
1 Department of English Language Education
2 Department of History Education
3 Department of Ethiopian Language and literature Education
4 Department of Geography and Environmental Education
We are trying to create LAN to connect these branches. The function of this LAN is
to connect computers in these branches together and provide shared access to files,
server and other services.
