TCD Psychology Alumni Dinner – 14th September 2012.

The School hosted an alumni dinner on 14 September 2012 in the College Dining Hall. This was the first time such a dinner had been held since the 30th anniversary in 1992. The dinner was attended by the Provost and graduates from as long ago as 1969, as well as a number of former staff. Attendees found it to be a wonderful opportunity to reunite with former classmates and teachers. It was a thoroughly enjoyable evening – and the kind of occasion that we must ensure occurs on a more regular basis in future.
