Quoting Frederick Douglass, the Harlem resident told the assembled crowd, “If there is no struggle there is no progress,” before he regaled the crowd with tales of his time studying in Ireland and learning about the skills involved in playing hurling.

Andrea Laidman also pursued her postgraduate study in NUIM. A Notre Dame alum, she told the crowd about her enriching experience of studying in Ireland, despite not having any Irish lineage.

Her time studying anthropology and international development in NUIM allowed her to connect with Irish people while also embracing the benefits of a world class education system.

Dervan, who heads Education in Ireland’s office in New York, says there is a big push from the current Irish government to pitch Ireland as a destination for schooling.
