Irish Studies Program

Dates: May 16 – June 26, 2010

Irish Studies is a six-week, nine credit hour program designed for all majors.   We’ll travel to Dublin, Belfast, Derry, Sligo, Enniskillen, Bushmills, and many more places.  We’ll visit Stormont, Northern Ireland’s parliament and chat with members face to face.  We’ll visit spots where great Irish authors, such as W.B. Yeats, penned some of their greatest works.  We’ll pray together in Saul, the sight of St. Patrick’s first church in Ireland.  We’ll enjoy Irish culture, enjoy great fish & chips, Irish stew, and of course the best cup of tea you’ll find in the world!
