Sad news this week on the passing of poet Gerald Dawe. A graduate of this university, & lecturer, it was a pleasure to host 'the Cultural Belongings' exhibition last year, including material from our collections and the hardcopy of Dawe's BA thesis (1977). May he rest in peace.

Academics based in Ireland should be wary of picking up the slack within UK Higher Education as external examiners resign from programmes in protest at shameful pension cuts. #UCUstrike #OneOfUsAllOfUs

What’s happening in UK higher education is a disgrace. As an Irish academic who benefited enormously from my training there, it is only fair I contribute to the UCU strike fund. Solidarity with great friends and talented collaborators. #UCUstrike #OneOfUsAllOfUs
