The College Theological Society of Trinity College, Dublin (commonly known as The Theo) was founded 1830. Its original purpose was to provide a forum for the discussion of Christian Theology for students of the School of Divinity in Trinity College, Dublin. The Theo still has strong ties to what is now the School of Religions and Theology and has expanded to discuss various religious topics

The Theo meets often on Monday evenings during the year for Paper Readings and Debates. In addition a Library Day allows theology students a chance to read and study the theological material available in the Bram Stoker Room.

[edit] Location

The Theo is based in the Bram Stoker Room (named after Abraham Stoker, author of Dracula, one of the few people in history to be both Auditor of the Hist and President of the Phil) in the Graduates Memorial Building.
