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:

    All questions rely on the present for their solution. Time measures nothing but itself. The word that is written may be postponed, but not that on the lip. If this is what the occasion says, let the occasion say it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Open the envelope quickly,
    O this is not our son’s writing, yet his name is sign’d,
    O a strange hand writes for our dear son, O stricken mother’s soul!
    All swims before her eyes, flashes with black, she catches the main
    words only,
    Sentences broken, gunshot wound in the breast, cavalry skirmish, taken to hospital,
    At present low, but will soon be better.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    If usually the “present age” is no very long time, still, at our pleasure, or in the service of some such unity of meaning as the history of civilization, or the study of geology, may suggest, we may conceive the present as extending over many centuries, or over a hundred thousand years.
    Josiah Royce (1855–1916)
