President Catherine Connolly yesterday officially launched a report on the study of the Irish language at Maynooth University.

The report, titled Ár gCampas, Ár dTeanga (“Our Campus, Our Language”), presents the findings of a large-scale study to examine ability in, use of, and attitudes towards Irish among all staff and students of the University.

Pictured at the launch is Prof Eeva Leinonen, President of Maynooth University, Uachtarán na hÉireann Catherine Connolly, and Rev Dr Michael Shortall, President of St Patrick’s College , Maynooth.

Ar an 24 Márta, seolfaidh Uachtarán na hÉireann, Catherine Connolly, tuarascáil taighde nua ar staid na Gaeilge in Ollscoil Mhá Nuad. Anailís chuimsitheach atá sa tuarascáil, Ár gCampas, Ár dTeanga, ar an inniúlacht sa Ghaeilge, ar úsáid na Gaeilge agus ar dhearcthaí i leith na teanga i measc mhic léinn agus bhaill foirne uile na hOllscoile.

Tugann torthaí an taighde le fios go bhfuil dea-thoil an-láidir i leith na Gaeilge i measc phobal na hOllscoile, chomh maith le deiseanna suntasacha cur leis an tacaíocht institiúideach don teanga.
