    Tallght did, it took a few years but was Tallaght Institute of Technology when they opened their doors and they changed it to ITT a few years ago.

    Yes because image the outrage if people use absolutely filthy words like Tit! There would be riots on the street.

    Yes, i know it for a fact as i had a connection to Tallaght RTC at the time it was under consideration.

    Also you should look up paranoia.

    GMIT is the Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology as it has 2 (3?) campuses in Mayo.

    So that's why there was never a campaign for Sligo I.T. to become a Sligo Higher Institute of Technology.

    Mind you there is a W.I.T. in Waterford. Does that make its undergraduates or part time students half-W.I.T.s ?

    I never knew it was called the Galway Mayo Institute of technology, so when I made my fake ID it had GIT written across the top. Still worked.

    It was just Tipperary Institute, there was no Technology.

    Hmmmmm. I wonder if that's why the Sligo-Leitrim University of Technology and Science never got off the ground.


    Well that and the fact that neither science nor technology has made it to either county yet...........
