Dublin
The
Dublin Program at Trinity College
June
15 to July 6, 2008
Ireland's membership in the European Union has transformed Dublin from a quaint,
provincial capital to a vibrant, sophisticated center. Unique provisions in
the Irish Constitution have given the Irish people a direct voice in the development
of the European Union. This is an important time to understand the Irish perspective
on EU membership.
The USF summer law program takes place on the picturesque campus of Trinity
College. All classes are held at the Aras an Phiarsaigh Building. Irish faculty
members teach two of the four courses. Trinity College, which is more than 400
years old, is located on a 35-acre campus in the heart of Dublin. Much of Ireland's
history has transpired within or immediately outside the college walls. Trinity's
famous library includes The Book of Kells. It is within a five-minute walk to
the House of Parliament, Dublin Castle, the Abbey Theatre, James Joyce's favorite
pubs and a vast variety of restaurants.
