Proposed candidate Rose Hynes failed to reach two-thirds majority needed among governing authority members
The University of Limerick campus: It is understood tensions arose among internal members of the governing authority over leadership of the university and questions about whether staff concerns were being adequately addressed.
Ms Hynes, who chairs the Irish Aviation Authority and has extensive corporate governance experience, has resigned from the governing authority to make way for a new candidate, according to informed sources. Dealing with dyslexia: ‘It was clear to us Jack was very clever. He just wasn’t progressing in some areas’A spokesman for UL declined to comment except to say that the process of appointing a new chancellor was ongoing and an interim chairperson was in place.
The chancellor’s role is unpaid, although expenses are payable. There is some concern that controversy over the appointment may dissuade high-calibre candidates from taking on the role. Sources close to Minister for Further and Higher Education Simon Harris said the Minister had no role in this process and was legally prohibited from intervening.‘I was given five days to leave the country’: Student at centre of deportation campaign graduates from universityMy daughter wants to study nursing but I worry that CAO points are too high.
