After his appointment in 1939, Mr. Turner (M.A., C.M.G., M.C.)’s major task involved transforming Makerere into a University College. Although the Second World War slowed the rapid advance for academic advancements, his major concerns were on buildings.
The Main Administrative Building and the two Chapels were erected and plans for Science Laboratories were made during this time. There was also an increasing number of students from Kenya and the then Tanganyika.
Mr. Turner resigned from being Principal in 1946 and thereafter left Uganda.
