TCD AND YALE RESEARCHERS TO STUDY STOCK MARKET SENTIMENT
A COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH project designed to measure investor attitudes to the stock market in both Ireland and the UK has been announced by Trinity’s School of Business and the International Centre for Finance (ICF) at the Yale School of Management. Building on an existing research project, which aims to extract sentiment measures from financial news, the monthly survey will cover individual and institutional investors in Ireland and the UK. The survey is the first of its kind to be carried out in Europe, and will assist academics and financial services professionals to better understand the changing dynamics of the stock market.

Coláiste na Tríonóide agus an Ghaeilge - Traidisiún Beo
TÁ ÁIT LÁRNACH ag an nGaeilge i gColáiste na Tríonóide, ó aimsir William Bedell, a chuir Gaeilge ar an Sean-Tiomna sa 17ú haois, ar aghaidh. Bhí Dubhglas de hÍde ina mhac léinn anseo. Bunaíodh Cathaoir na Gaeilge in 1841. Ina measc siúd a ghlac seilbh ar an bpost sin, bhí an scríbhneoir Máirtín Ó Cadhain (1969-'70).
Tá Roinn na Gaeilge (www.tcd.ie/irish) lonnaithe i bhFoirgneamh na n-Ealaíon, agus tá cóipeanna micreascannáin de Bhailiúchán Choimisiúin Beáloideas Éireann ar coimeád sa Roinn. Tá dhá scéim chónaithe Gaeilge ag an Coláiste do mhic léinn, ceann acu ar an gcampas agus ceann eile i nDartraí. Tá Cumann Gaelach an Choláiste ar an gcumann Gaelach is mó sa tír, le breis is 1,000 ball sa bhliain acadúil 2007/2008.
Tá Oifig na Gaeilge ann chun eolas a chur ar fáil maidir leis an Acht Teanga. Tá ról ag an Oifig, le Coiste na Gaeilge, i gcur chun cinn na teanga sa Choláiste. Táthar ag súil leis go gcuirfear ionad sóisialta ar fáil don fhoireann, ina mbeidh deis ag daoine cupán caifé a ól agus dreas comhrá a dhéanamh as Gaeilge. Feictear, mar sin, go bhfuil an Ghaeilge beo beathach i gColáiste na Trionóide. Tá tuilleadh eolais ar fáil ag
