商品簡介
Walsh, founding president of the University of Limerick, Ireland, presents his memoir, which relates how he returned to Ireland from the US and founded the National Institute of Higher Education in 1972, the first university established in the Republic of Ireland. After a chapter on his childhood and adolescence, he describes, in diary-style entries up to his retirement in 1998, its founding, funding, staff, and academic and personal challenges during his period of leadership at what became the University of Limerick.
