Trinity Development and Alumni was established with the objective of raising funds to support the development of Trinity College Dublin. It plays a vital role in ensuring that Trinity College has the financial resources to remain a leading, internationally recognised university.

The Trustees of Trinity Foundation join the Provost, Fellows and Scholars of Trinity College in thanking all supporters of the University. Significant philanthropic donations, which have been used to support College activities, were received and this funding is a testament both to the quality of the projects and to the generosity of our dedicated supporters. Special thanks are due to those who donated through the U.K. Trust for Trinity College Dublin, the University of Dublin Fund in the U.S.A. and all alumni who contributed to the Trinity Annual Fund.

  • 29Th June 2003 Pigs May Fly Over TV Studios by Bob Quinn If Brian
    29th June 2003 Pigs May Fly Over TV Studios By Bob Quinn If Brian Dobson, Irish Television’s chief male newsreader had been sacked for his recent breach of professional ethics, pigs would surely have taken to the air over Dublin. Dobson, was exposed as doing journalistic nixers i.e. privately helping to train Health Board managers in the art of responding to hard media questions – from such as Mr. Dobson. When his professional bilocation was revealed he came out with his hands up – live, by phone, on a popular RTE evening radio current affairs programme – said he was sorry, that he had made a wrong call. If long-standing Staff Guidelines had been invoked, he might well have been sacked. Immediately others confessed, among them Sean O’Rourke, presenter of the station’s flagship News At One. He too, had helped train public figures, presumably in the usual techniques of giving soft answers to hard questions. Last year O’Rourke, on the live news, rubbished the arguments of the Chairman of Primary School Managers against allowing advertisers’ direct access to schoolchildren. O’Rourke said the arguments were ‘po-faced’. It transpires that many prominent Irish public broadcasting figures are as happy with part-time market opportunities as Network 2’s rogue builder, Dustin the Turkey, or the average plumber in the nation’s black economy. National radio success (and TV failure) Gerry Ryan was in the ‘stable of stars’ run by Carol Associates and could command thousands for endorsing a product. Pop music and popcorn cinema expert Dave Fanning lucratively opened a cinema omniplex.

  • Rencontre Européenne Nb. 8 Peter Sutherland
    41, boulevard des Capucines - 75002 Paris – France Tel. : +33 1 44 58 97 97/98 - Fax : +33 1 44 58 97 99 Site : www.notre-europe.eu - email : [email protected] RENCONTRE EUROPÉENNE NB. 8 PETER SUTHERLAND JUNE 2008 ‘To be truly Irish we have to be European first’ ‘We need the European Union to bind us to other people’ Peter Sutherland The Spire and statue of Jim Larkin on O’Connell Street Interview with Peter Sutherland A fervently pro-European Irishman, Peter Sutherland has held important political mandates in his country, as well as at the European and international level. He was appointed Attorney General of Ireland in the governments of Garret FitzGerald, before becoming European Commissioner for Competition in the first Delors Commission (1985-89). He subsequently became Director General of GATT (now WTO). Peter Sutherland is currently serving as Chairman of BP, of Goldman Sachs International and is the UN Special Representative for Migration. We met him at his house in Dublin, prior to the Irish referendum on the Lisbon Treaty. What made you such a convinced European? From a very early stage, as a university student already, I was a committed European. We could see at first hand in this country the enormous suffering created by extreme nationalism which in turn was a reaction to injustice. Nationalism – often combined with religion, as was the case in Northern Ireland – has often led to conflict throughout history. According to one opinion poll I saw years ago the Irish are the proudest people of all; they have the greatest sense of their own nationality.

  • The Gerry Ryan Show on 2FM and the Death of Diana, Princess of Wales a Case-Study, September 1997
    The Gerry Ryan Show on 2FM and The Death of Diana, Princess of Wales A Case-Study, September 1997 "Study submitted in part fulfillment of the requirement for the award of Master of Arts Degree in Communications & Cultural Studies” NAME: Ciara Me Carrón DATE: 6th February 1998 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express my gratitude to the staff of Dublin City University for their understanding and support throughout my course of study, especially Stephanie MacBride. Thanks also to Clare Byrne, Majella Breen, Niall Me Gowan and The Gerry Ryan Show programme team in 2FM. I would further like to acknowledge my gratitude to my family, especially my father, Billy Me Carron for their patience whilst I completed my studies. Finally, this project is dedicated to the loving memory of my mother, Anne Me Carron, who died 11th November, 1997, RIP. SYNOPSIS In the modem world, there are a proliferation of media choices available to the discerning, (and not so discerning), audience. It is a rare moment indeed when, in the crowded television, radio and print media schedules, something approaching a united front occurs, and only one subject is debated, only one topic is talked about, everywhere. The number of times this has happened could be counted on the fingers of one hand. The death of Diana, Princess of Wales was one such media moment. For those of us who were not around for the death and funeral of John F. Kennedy, this was the first media-event we experienced, in terms of the tragic death and funeral of such a world famous person.

It is a forum for people with ideas from Britain and across the contintent to discuss the many social, political and economic challenges facing Europe. It seeks to work with similar bodies in other European countries, North America and elsewhere in the world. The CER is pro-European but not uncritical. It regards European integration What future as largely beneficial but recognises that in many respects the Union does not work well.

Talk Radio Sara O’Sullivan Talk is the mainstay of Irish daytime radio. The majority of Irish people listening to radio in the mornings listen to a talk radio show on either RTÉ Radio 1 or 2FM. Talk accompanies the routine activities of these listeners and is the backdrop to work both in the home and in other settings. Talk radio is seen to compliment news and current affairs output and so to contribute to RTÉ’s public service brief. The morning talk radio shows on RTÉ Radio 1 feature the usual suspects, most typically representatives of political parties, interest groups or other organisations being interviewed about the news stories of the day. In contrast The Gerry Ryan Show and Liveline feature a mix of light and serious topics and the majority of the speakers are ordinary people rather than experts.
