An Cumann Gaelach, TCD
An Cumann Gaelach is the Irish Language and culture Society at The University of Dublin, Trinity College (Irish: Ollscoil Átha Cliath, Coláiste na Tríonóide). Established in 1906, the society has grown over the past century to become the third largest society in Trinity College, and the largest Cumann Gaelach in the country.
The society's main objective is the promotion of the Irish language and culture in the college, allowing people to use whatever level of Irish they have in a social scenario, organising events throughout the year to satisfy the many Irish speakers of the institution. The nature of these events can vary widely, from céilíthe, various receptions, debating competitions, lectures, concerts and the weekly "Conversation Circle". It is important that the Irish language can be seen and heard outside of the class room. The beginning of Hilary term is also set aside for Éigse, an entire week dedicated to the Irish language in Trinity College. The society is also responsible for the Irish language college magazine, Tuathal which is available each term.
