- There is a beautiful tradition in Irish farming: that for each cultivated field one must leave a corner wild- for the hare. Wild here doesn’t just mean the space for the untamed but for mystery and magic too; for the unknown which can arise at any time.Lucky our garden has hares!
- I am very honoured to take up the role of President of this great institution. Im looking forward to working with our great students and staff in securing our sustainable future! @UCCUCC is pleased to announce the appointment of Professor John O’Halloran @johbees as the sixteenth President of the University. ucc.ie/en/news/univer…
- On my first day as @UCC President I received a beautiful and generous gift from @jpquinn78 and his dear wife Belcy- which I will treasure. It is now sitting in the window of my office. The beautiful piece is titled ‘the flame of learning’. That we may all continue to learn.
- Not quite the kind of start of term I was hoping for 20/21 semester! Wishing all our @UCC staff and students every good wishes for the year ahead! We are in this together! Let us make it a healthy & educationally rich year-despite the challenges of covid. Keep your dreams alive!
