Student life and Irish There are many opportunities for students with Irish to use it in Trinity... - Seomra na Gaeilge is a space for anyone in College to relax as Gaeilge, with Irish-language books and magazines, comfy chairs, and tea, coffee and biscuits for only 20c. - College provides free Irish classes, at various levels, for students of any discipline - including international students who have never had the chance to learn the language before. - Our conversation circle come together to practice their cúpla focal every Wednesday from 10.30am in the Buttery restaurant - new members always welcome. - Service through Irish is provided at the main desks of the Berkeley and Hamilton libraries, from 9am until 3.30pm every Monday to Friday, as well as other library services. - The Scéimeanna Cónaithe are a great opportunity for students to get involved in promoting Irish in College, and get a €1,000 grant towards accommodation costs... - Membership of An Cumann Gaelach is highly recommended (see below). An Cumann Gaelach An Cumann Gaelach (a student society for Irish language and culture) is one of the largest student societies in Trinity College. The Cumann was founded in 1908 and many historical figures have been connected with it over the years. These days, it is going from strength to strength. See our news page for an article on the many prizes they won in 2013/14. The Cumann organise a huge amount of social and cultural events during the year, including debates, public lectures/talks, music and singing sessions, dance classes, sporting events and more. The Cumann brings students on tour to Oireachtas na Gaeilge each year. They hold a 'ciorcal comhrá' (conversation circle) every Tuesday evening in Seomra na Gaeilge, and carry on to the student night in Club Chonradh na Gaeilge on Harcourt street afterwards. The highlight of the year is Éigse na Tríonóide, Trinity's annual Irish language and culture festival, which is run in collaboration with Oifig na Gaeilge. Membership of An Cumann Gaelach is open to everyone in College, and more information is available on their website www.cumann.ie. Explore Gaeilge This video about Irish in College, made by an Irish student called Philip Hickey, was recently selected for 'Trinity Explore'. If you're thinking of coming to Trinity College, it's well worth your while to watch this video and the others that are up on the Trinity Explore website. International Students If you are an international student in Trinity College, you have plenty of opportunities to learn the Irish language and to enjoy Gaelic culture here in College: - The free Irish language classes at Level A1 cater for complete beginners. Students from many different countries attend these classes each term. The courses are compatible with the syllabus of the European Certificate in Irish (TEG), an internationally-recognised qualification. Specific support is given to students who want to gain this qualification. - The Department of Irish offers modules through the medium of English. The module "Irish Language and Literature" is designed specifically for visiting students, and it is suitable for anyone who is interested in the history, folklore and literature of the Irish language, but who has never studied those topics before. - The Irish Language Office and the Cumann Gaelach (a student society for Irish language and culture) organise various events during the year that are suitable for people with only a little Irish - e.g. céilí dancing, traditional sports, language exchange evenings... Learners are always welcome at all events. See below some interviews with Irish-language learners from Canada and the United States (with thanks to ICUF). They talk about their interest in the Irish language and the things that they like about Ireland!
