    Following basic instructions seems to be a problem for an awful lot of people. Cant sit with a space between each person despite being told numerous times to. Not to mention all the times they have don't an exam like this before. :/

    Those in 4th year, what's your plan of action after you graduate? Job? Masters? Travel? Stand outside the dole office and cry? :D

    Taking a year out, I think. Trying to save for a 2 year masters in UCD is no mean feat. :eek:

    How about you?

    I'm not far off 30 :eek: so I'll be looking for work and checking out my options for a masters next year. I've already done the travelling thing so there'll be no bumming around Europe or Oz for me. :(

    What's the masters in? Or will you give your identity away if you say?:p


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 2,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭angeldaisy


    Well, as a slightly more mature student.... I'm hoping to do either a masters or another follow on course - fingers crossed. then of course hope for work!

    very envious of those who intend to travel..

    @MISUoffice: Will the new campus on O'Connell avenue be open for the new academic year?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,052 ✭✭✭Un Croissant


    I swear to god I could make a few grand off the laptops holding seats in the library.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 190 ✭✭kittycati


    Only in Mary dry would it happen!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,052 ✭✭✭Un Croissant


    What's the story with people doing it? I think a good 50% of seats were held today but empty. Its possible just to move the stuff out of the way?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,428 ✭✭✭Talib Fiasco


    It's so that people can do some work, go home/go to a lecture and still have their stuff in a guaranteed seat when they came back...a lot of my friends did that...sometimes from open until close...yeah my friends are c*nts :P personally I couldn't do work in the library this semester the las few weeks. The quiet room in the IT lab was quieter, cooler, less distracting and you were more likely to get a seat funnily enough


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,305 ✭✭✭131spanner


    +1 on that, the library has been roasting some days! Last week I got a seat just outside the library doors, up behind the vending machines. It's been my favourite place to work since :o

    http://www.limerickleader.ie/news/business/business-news/former-limerick-convent-sold-to-mary-immaculate-college-1-5384495
    THE HISTORIC building at Mount St Vincent on O’Connell Avenue in Limerick has been sold to Mary Immaculate College by the Sisters of Mercy.

    The Limerick Leader understands that sale is due to be closed in the coming weeks, and the businesses currently using the grounds have been told to move out by September 1.

    However, a spokesperson for MIC said legal issues regarding the sale are still being finalised, and the cost is commercially sensitive.

    In an earlier statement, the college said it was delighted to announce its intention to acquire “a major property which will enhance its city centre campus”. The former Mount Convent complex from the 19th century is a protected structure adjacent to the college and covers approximately 4000 square metres.

    The college said they will possibly use this new premises to bring all postgraduate activities together into one space and “to significantly advance provision in this area”.

    “From a strategic perspective, the extension of the estate will bring the campus footprint onto O’Connell Avenue, the main city thoroughfare, raising the profile of the college as a prominent physical feature of Limerick city and, more importantly, as integral to the currency of the wider community,” they stated.

    The nuns moved from the convent building in 2008 to a new purpose-built complex adjacent to their former home.
