My name is Buster Whaley and I’m your Education Officer for the upcoming academic year! My job, as Chief Academic Officer of the Union, is to provide support for your academic journey. Any academic-related issues or concerns you might have - if you’ve failed an exam, need an extension, or want to transfer to another course - I’m here to help you with. I also sit on a number of college committees, including University Council and the Undergraduate Studies Committee, meaning that I am in a prime position to represent the academic needs of students within the University.
The other key aspect of my job is to oversee the class representative system. Each course at Trinity has at least one class representative, and every one of them plays an important role in the functioning of the Union.
My office is on the first floor of Teach a Sé (House 6), or you can send me an email at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. to arrange a meeting at an accessible location. It’s my job to help you in any way that I can, so please don’t hesitate to reach out!
Buster Whaley is ainm dom agus is mise an tOifigeach Oideachais don bhliain acadúil seo! An post atá agam, mar Phríomhoifigeach Acadúil an Aontais, ná tacaíocht a thabhairt duit agus tú ag tabhairt faoi d’aistear acadúil. Táim ar fáil le cabhrú leat mar gheall ar fhadhb nó ar imní ar bith atá agat a bhaineann le cúrsaí acadúla - má theipeann ort i scrúdú, má tá síneadh ama ag teastáil uait, nó má theastaíonn uait aistriú go cúrsa éigin eile. Is ball mé de roinnt coistí de chuid an choláiste chomh maith, Comhairle na hOllscoile agus an Coiste um Léann Fochéime san áireamh, mar sin táim oilte le hionadaíocht a dhéanamh ar riachtanais acadúla na mac léinn san Ollscoil.
Gné ríthábhachtach eile den phost atá agam ná maoirseacht a dhéanamh ar chóras na nIonadaithe Ranga. Tá ionadaí ranga amháin ar a laghad ag gach cúrsa i gColáiste na Tríonóide, agus glacann gach duine acu ról tábhachtach i bhfeidhmiú an Aontais.
Tá m’oifig suite ar an gcéad úrlár i dTeach a Sé, nó is féidir ríomhphost a sheoladh chugam ag This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. le cruinniú a eagrú liom ag suíomh inrochtana. Tá freagracht orm cabhrú leat in aon bhealach gur féidir liom, mar sin ná bíodh drogall ort teacht i dteagmháil liom!
