ONE OF THE GREATEST disappointments I may face in 2010 is the failure of several third level students to return to their seats in our creative multimedia degree programme. From direct correspondence, I know that they are having issues with maintenance grants. Simply out, mature students have debts to service and that requirement (to keep food on the table) will pre-empt further education. So I make this blog post along with the promise to write letters of endrosement to local VECs who are considering applications for continued funding from some of the sharpest students I have ever knowm. Their higher level qualifications are core elements of Ireland's smart economy. If I ran the country, I would fund them before I paid to repair potholes that pockmark Ireland's landscape.
