University recalls old links with Kerry at meeting

Close links between University College Cork and Kerry dating to the mid-19th century were recalled yesterday when the board of governors held its first meeting in the county.

Kerry County Council chambers in Tralee was the venue for the meeting, which heard how many Kerry-born graduates were among UCC’s distinguished business, professional, and sporting alumni.

@countykerry Manager, Tom Curran, (and UCC engineering graduate) welcomed the UCC Governors and spoke of the many UCC/Kerry links.
