Don’t waste your twenties sleeping! They only last so long and there’s much to be doing! Like gaining weight, re-watching the entire series of ‘f.r.i.e.n.d.s’ and playing hundreds of hours of online gaming! Diary of a VAMPIRE from Irish actress and epic V-Logger Lisa Ní Laoire…
How To Survive Exams V-Log (Pay careful attention Arts, Law and Pharmacy students)
Introducing Irish actress Lisa Ní Laoire to Studenty! Lisa is somewhat of an expert when it comes to solving your most pressing problems – and this week cramming for exams takes priority over the mystery of where next week’s rent is coming from. Studenty.me takes no responsibility for course failures arising out of this unique take on how to survive third level’s greatest challenge – exams (Friday morning lectures a close second).
Studenty Sunday: Random Edition
Every week Roisin Peddle takes a look at ten stories making the headlines here at Studenty.me. One of the silliest ads around at the moment is the one where the skydive instructor tells his bewildered skydivers to pull on the sheep clock which release their rubber duck and he’ll see them on the cupcake. In this spirit, I present a wide, diverse and even disparate group of articles for your edification this Sunday. (Can they tell I’ve ran out of ideas yet? Well, not if you don’t tell them- Ed). 1.

Studenty Sunday: Book-Learnin’ Edition
Every week Roisin Peddle takes a look at the stories that made the headlines here at Studenty.me this week… We put on our mortar-boards here at Studenty Towers this week, which means only one thing… It’s coming towards the end of another academic year and all that much nearer exams. Here are ten to make you laugh and think this Sunday. 1. Speaking of exams, they can’t be avoided. (Unless you’re an Arts student, boom boom). Jane Kearns arms you with the A to Z of exams. 2. Ever get [...]
Future of USI fee campaign questioned
The Union of Students in Ireland recently held its annual congress in Ballinasloe, Co. Galway from the 2nd to the 5th of April. Congress, where delegates elect the next year’s national officer board and debate on motions and policy for the upcoming three years, is the main decision-making event of the USI’s calendar year. One of the most contentious debates of the Congress was on the proposed preferendum to change the USI’s stance on third level education.
Are you ready? 24-hour live DCUTV
DCU shall take over Aer TV.ie tomorrow as they attempt to host a 24 Hour Live Broadcast, at 8pm tomorrow evening. All shows to be aired throughout the marathon have been made by DCU students and will include DCU’s own Apprentice, Babestation and The Late Late Show. Last year the 24-Hour Broadcast raised over €2000, but this year’s team are planning to at least double that figure, all in aid of Temple Street Children’s Hospital. Throughout the broadcast there will be various ways to donate via text and the internet. Spar on [...]
Ireland’s drinking culture: Time for a change?
Yesterday was Good Friday, one of the two days of the year that the pubs in Ireland are shut. Regardless of the fact that you can drink the other 363 days of the year, some see this as an absolute disaster. I watched a TV3 news report on all the places where you can still get a drink- trains, boats with passenger licences. Do we really need to find loopholes? Can we not go one day without buying drink? On Thursday outside the coroner’s court in Cork, two heartbroken parents [...]
Irish Universities fail to make Times Higher Education World Reputation Rankings
No Irish university has succeeded in making the Top 100 in the prestigous Times Higher Education World Reputation Rankings, which was published this morning. The esteemed poll is compiled annually by over 17,000 academics from 149 countries. 19 nations worldwide were represented in this year’s poll with the US claiming 44 of the desirable spots. Harvard University claims the number one spot while Massachusetts Institute of Technology occupies the second. The United Kingdom’s University of Cambridge was deemed the third most reputable third level institution in the world. Universities from [...]
Studenty Sunday: ALL THE THINGS Edition
Every week Roisin Peddle takes a look at the top ten stories making the headlines at Studenty.me through the week. My limited imagination struggled with a title for this week’s Studenty Sunday, which covers stories ranging from chuggers in Dublin to kidnapping in Darfur. Well, as someone once said, “The easiest way to become popular is to leech off the popularity of others.” In that spirit, I present a meme-inspired Studenty Sunday! 1. *Sucess baby* 2012 looks to be another great year for gaming, and Darran Goggin previews five games [...]
Studenty Sunday: Life Lessons Edition
Every Sunday Roisin Peddle takes a look at the top ten stories that made the headlines this week on Studenty. 2012 might be ancient at this stage but it doesn’t mean that we here in Studenty have forgotten about New Year self-improvement. Among our top ten stories are nuggets of golden, crispy wisdom… 1. The actress Maria Doyle Kennedy and Kevin Kennedy recently played a gig in Kinsale. Tom McCarthy found it an almost religious experience… 2. Ireland lost one of its most impassioned campaigners recently with the death of [...]
