CMC Students Learn About Cultural Heritage-Restoration Project

The Childhood home of Oscar Wilde, 1855 - 1878

American College Dublin came into possession of this house in 1994 and was presented with an extremely generous donation in 1998 by Tina & William E. Flaherty, New York City, which has provided the College with the much needed funds to undertake a series of restoration works, under the guidance of Mrs. Ellen Ross Sarafian, Curator of the Oscar Wilde House.
The Clementina & William E. Flaherty Cultural Centre enables the College to host many interesting exhibitions and it has become an integral part of the artistic and cultural life in Dublin and has quickly become a highly desirable exhibition venue amongst the artistic community both in Ireland and overseas.
The Oscar Wilde House restoration project involved the revival of traditional crafts to repair plasterwork and joinery and restore the original stone and wooden floors found throughout the house.
The hall, stairs, landing & first floor have all been decorated with period paints and antique mirrors, rugs and fabrics. Reproduction furniture of Irish Georgian design was specially commissioned for the house and was modelled on the furniture found in many of the historic houses around Ireland.
Students attending the American College Dublin have the opportunity to study in the Oscar Wilde House, many of whom are International/ American students who have chose to study on of the degree, master diploma programs at American College Dublin or to spend a semester at the college, as part o our Study Abroad Programme. These students are privileged to be able to study in the unique atmosphere of the Oscar Wilde House.

Space still available for the Summer 2010 Study in Ireland!

Is Ireland Your Dream?

Did you know that more than 34.5 million U.S. residents claim Irish ancestry? This number is almost nine times the population of Ireland today. No wonder we are getting such a great response to our study in Ireland program for summer 2010. We’re hearing that going to Ireland is a lifelong dream for many of our students. We are working with Irish American University which has many programs in common with CMC, especially in the areas of Entrepreneurship, Business and Finance, Liberal Arts such as Literature, and degrees and certificates in Hospitality Management. Did I mention that their campus is ideally located in historic Dublin across the street from Trinity College? Start planning!

International Programs Road Show

Melanie Stevens and I have spent the last couple of days visiting with students on several CMC campuses and the excitement is building for Study Abroad opportunities coming up this spring and summer 2010. We had a great time visiting classes and after looking at slides, I'm ready to beam myself over to Madrid to sit in an outdoor café to people watch and have a café con leche and then to wander through Velazquez room of the Prado Museum. Ah, well, soon enough. Join us!

Have a look at our web page. Ireland is a hot topic now too!

Expand Your Horizons, Education Abroad 2010

CMC is very committed to providing students with affordable opportunities to build their global skill set. I recently had a call from a parent who wanted to send her two sons to Spain with CMC for a Spanish language immersion program. When she saw our prices she wanted to know why our prices were so low when comparable programs at larger Colorado universities were up to three times more expensive. I told her that it is simple --CMC doesn't make money on our Study Abroad Programs. What a student invests in program fees on his or her abroad program is spent directly on that student offering a quality abroad experience for much less.

So if you are ready to expand your educational and personal growth and are looking for critical career advantages, give some serious consideration to participating in one of our quality education abroad programs.

Spring Semester in Spain 2010 - Deadline is fast approaching!
