For the tens of thousands of MIC students who have come through the College in the past three decades, Deirdre O’Riordan has been behind the counter of Student Academic Administration (SAA) to handle their query—be it relating to timetables, examinations, transcripts or any of the many essential pieces of information that a student might need along their way. From Orientation to Graduation, the beginning of the student journey to the culmination of the hard work, Deirdre is one of the key support staff who is with them along the way. For 32 years now, Deirdre has worked for MIC and all but three months of that time was working in SAA. She was recently promoted to Examinations and Academic Events Manager in that division. In the third of our quarterly profile pieces on MIC Staff members, we spoke to Deirdre about her memories of MIC down through the years including how she has seen things change, the support she felt from MIC during her hardest days and, of course, her love of hurling.
The third Traveller to be awarded a PhD in the history of the State, Dr Hannagh McGinley sees herself as a living example to other Travellers as to what can be achieved in education. Her example, however, bucks the trend of poor Traveller education retention rates, ingrained, although typically unconscious, discrimination against Travellers and a mutual misunderstanding between the community and the education system.
As both a lecturer and as Chaplain to the College since 2000, Fr Michael Wall has spent almost a quarter of a century in a unique position, occupying a sacred space between the College’s staff and students. On one hand, a lecturer within the Department of Theology & Religious Studies, but on the other a trusted face that students could approach; be that in need for counseling or support in their academic or personal lives, or for as nonchalant a need as a cup of tea and a chat between lectures. Now, aged 70, Mick (as he is more fondly referred to) is preparing to retire from the College and in the latest of our In Conversation With series, he looks back over decades of service to MIC and to Limerick.
