The National University of Ireland 1908 - 2008

This beautifully illustrated book celebrates The National University of Ireland's centenary by looking at its origins in the Royal University and further back. It examines the Irish-language movement and the campaign to include women: the relationship between the NUI and its Constituent Colleges, the contribution of its four Chancellors, and the evolving roles of the Senate, the Registrar, the Recognized Colleges, and the graduates body, or Convocation. Includes the valuable NUI Archive and a series of appendices. Co-edited by John Coolahan, Maurice Manning, Gearoid o Tuathaigh.
