Scope and content
The Chancellor of the University of Dublin is the titular head of the University of Dublin, generally referred to by its sole college, Trinity College Dublin (TCD). Mary Robinson was elected the 25th Chancellor, the first female to be elected to role since the University was established by Queen Elizabeth I in 1592, on 17th December 1998. As Chancellor, she was also one of two Visitors, the other being The Hon Mr Justice Henry Barron. [Visitors are overseers of an autonomous ecclesiastical or eleemosynary institution, who can intervene in the internal affairs of that institution. They may also be called upon to give advice where an institution expresses doubt as to its powers under its charter and statutes. The most important function is to determine disputes arising between the institution and its members (students/staff).]
Material in this subsubseries includes that relating to Statutes for TCD, general correspondence, material relating to appeals to Visitors [mostly closed], and material relating to the Advisory Committee on Honorary Degrees [mostly closed] and is arranged chronologically across 42 files, where appropriate.
