The National University of Ireland has played a key role in Irish
life since its foundation in 1908. This beautifully illustrated
book celebrates its centenary by looking at its origins in the
Royal University, and further back in the Queen's Colleges, the
Catholic University and St Patrick's College, Maynooth. A
distinguished group of contributors examines formative influences,
especially the role of the Irish language movement and the campaign
to include women; the relationship between the NUI and its
Constituent Colleges (more recently Constituent Universities); the
contribution of its four Chancellors that have presided over its
affairs, and the evolving roles of the Senate, the Registrar, the
Recognised Colleges and the graduates body, or Convocation. The
challenges posed by the transformation of Irish education since
1967, and particularly by the 1997 Universities Act are analysed.
The valuable NUI Archive is listed and a series of Appendices
provide details of office-holders, members of Senate, and of NUI
Awards and Scholarships.
