    Does trinity have an old boys club??

    When you speak to people and tell them you go or have gone to trinity, do you get a positive reaction?

    One of my friends said if it wasn't for his trinity contacts he would not have got his current job.

    Of course, the Old Boys club meets on the Liffey Boardwalk everyday at 10.30 AM to score junk and bother tourists.

    There certainly are a few Old Boys' Clubs, and many people assume I'm an ársehole if I tell them I go to Trinity - can't say I blame them.

    Law is supposedly like that anyway, or so I've been told as a law student. All about the contacts you build up and stuff. That said I'm only a JF so yeah, I don't know how true that is.
