Maseno University is a public university established on the site of a former colonial-era school, spread across a campus that sits directly on the equator. It's the dominant institution in the town and gives Maseno much of its character as a young, educational community.
The equatorial position is the main curiosity for visitors: you can stand on the line and have one foot in the northern hemisphere and one in the southern. There's no elaborate monument — just a painted marker and the quiet satisfaction of being at 0° latitude. The university campus is generally open to visitors during daytime hours; the administration building and library are near the main gate.
