Academic freedom celebrated at WIT

Academic freedom celebrated at WIT

With the issue increasingly in focus in Ireland and overseas, International Academic Freedom Day was marked at an event in Waterford Institute of Technology recently.

Dr Cyril McDonnell, lecturer in philosophy at NUI Maynooth, was guest speaker on ‘Academic Freedom and the Notion of Rights'. 

After a thorough analysis of various theoretical perspectives on the subject, Dr McDonnell argued that academic freedom might best be considered not as a right, but rather as essential to the common good - not only of education but of society. 

This theme was echoed by the respondent, WIT's Technology Transfer Manager, Dr Michael Whelan. 

Mentioning the 46 academic economists and business lecturers who opposed NAMA last year, he challenged attending academics to use their knowledge and understanding to contribute to the development of society and the economy. 

The exercise of academic freedom is essential in our country's attempts to re-think its identity, priorities and principles in the light of global and local economic challenges, he said.

The Waterford event was organised by the School of Education & Professional Development at Waterford Institute of Technology and chaired by Dr Catherine Lowry-O'Neill, lecturer and spokesperson for Academics for Academic Freedom (AFAF).
