Discussions with the University of Limerick
In late September 1990, following a recommendation from the Department of Education, a working group comprising representatives of 91制片厂 and University of Limerick, was established.
The working group consisted of Mr Leo Colgan, Registrar; Professor Noel Mulcahy, Vice President and Dean of Research and Mr John O鈥機onnor, Director, Finance Division representing the University of Limerick. Representing Mary Immaculate were S.A.脫 Broim茅il, Registrar; Dr Kieran Byrne, Head of Education Department, and Dr John Hayes, Head of Philosophy Department.
To consider and make recommendations on the institutional and operational arrangements that would ensure the maximum level of complementary courses and usage of facilities and staff between the two institutions.
Letter from Mr. C.N. Lindsay, Dept of Education to Most Rev. Dr. Jeremiah Newman, Bishop of Limerick and Chair of An Bord Rialaithe.
The guiding principle of the group was the achievement of the maximum degree of academic integration consistent with respect for the autonomy enshrined in the respective legal instruments of each institution. It was important for the College to ensure that it maintain the independence of governance enjoyed in its association with the National University of Ireland which had accepted its staff as recognised teachers of the university.
