The first mention of Celtic as a degree subject in class catalogues in session 1906-1907 when the three following students took Celtic courses as their degree (or as part of their degree).

N.B. the following lists are of students that enrolled in these classes at the start of each academic year, not evidence that they actually attended. The actual number of students who completed the assessment on these courses seems to have been considerably smaller.

Mary Anne took classes in English, Latin, French, Logic, Maths, as well as Celtic during the course of her studies, October 1906 to October 1911, and yet although she won a prize at Celtic, she seems to have left the University without graduating (Abandoned student files, ‘Mary Anne McLaine, Glasgow,’ GUAS, R6/58). She appears to have been the first female president of An Comann Oiseanach, referred to as such in a reunion in 1938. Glasgow Herald , 18 February 1938, page 12.
