Apologies for not updating this in a few weeks…To describe the last week as hectic would be an understatement. I won’t go into specifics other to say that the student body got their money’s worth from us as a result!
I just wanted to leave a quick note about the world university rankings which came out this morning. For those of you that don’t know UCC have jumped into the top two-hundred for the first time which is a great achievement regardless of the comments of the many detractors. The point that needs to be made however is that UCC has no reasonable chances of continuing its upward crusade with the current funding situation that exists.
Over the next few weeks you’re going to be hearing an awful lot about the student services charge in relation to the registration fee and the exorbitant government claw back. Given today’s news the simple message that I want to get across is that here and now is the time to get involved…For the sake of your education and the status of the college going forward.
