    I was given this idea by another mod on boards for here.
    Introduce yourself here, and tell us what course you are doing and what year you are in :)


    I'll start off!

    I'm going into 3rd year computing, focusing on programming. I'm 24 and this is my second time in college, did Business Management in DIT the first time around

    Who's next? :)

    I'm heading into 4th year Marketing Management and I enjoy my course hugely. Looking forward to the proposed new Mac Lab for the School of Business also!:D

    I'm 21 and took a year out after my LC before applying for college.

    I was also a Computing student at RTC Tallaght ( remember those days anyone ! ) back in the dim and distant past.

    Currently out on work placement. It is a blow.

    Everyone starts out that way! It's nerve-wracking, but you get to know people reeeeally quickly. Everyone's in the same boat, so everyone's keen to make friends!

    Transferring from Ballyfermot HND in Multimedia into 3rd year AV (I'm assuming no-one actually calls it CDM then?) And I'm 36. So I'm *actually* old. I'm so old it took me about 15 seconds to remember how old I am. Seriously.

    It's gonna be weird being new in a group that have been together for two years already...
