Milltown Institute of Theology and Philosophy - Present

Present

The Milltown Institute discontinued their teaching and research programmes in the Spring of 2011 and, effectively, closed. After Jesuit founded, University College Dublin rejected Milltown's approaches it is anticipated that the institution will negotiate entrance to Trinity College Dublin to continue its existence as the Loyola Institute in a centre of study along with the Irish School of Ecumenics. In this likelihood, the current property in Milltown would be sold and a new facility either purchased or purpose built at Trinity College Dublin's campus in the centre of Dublin. Staff and faculty members who held positions until 2011 would, for the most part, not continue within the new Loyola Institute. Conferring of Ecclesiastical/Pontifical and HETAC took place on Tuesday the 2nd of October 2012, with NUI awards on Wednesday the 3rd of October 2012. A new Certificate in Theology commences in September 2012 also commencing is an adult education diploma in Spirituality.

Famous quotes containing the word present:

    There is not any present moment that is unconnected with some future one. The life of every man is a continued chain of incidents, each link of which hangs upon the former. The transition from cause to effect, from event to event, is often carried on by secret steps, which our foresight cannot divine, and our sagacity is unable to trace. Evil may at some future period bring forth good; and good may bring forth evil, both equally unexpected.
    Joseph Addison (1672–1719)

    The present war having so long cut off all communication with Great-Britain, we are not able to make a fair estimate of the state of science in that country. The spirit in which she wages war is the only sample before our eyes, and that does not seem the legitimate offspring either of science or of civilization.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    It took six weeks of debate in the Senate to get the Arms Embargo Law repealed—and we face other delays during the present session because most of the Members of the Congress are thinking in terms of next Autumn’s election. However, that is one of the prices that we who live in democracies have to pay. It is, however, worth paying, if all of us can avoid the type of government under which the unfortunate population of Germany and Russia must exist.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
