Sir, – On behalf of the members of Institutes of Technology Ireland I wish to express our deep sadness at the death of Seán Flynn.
Seán had a curious and questioning mind which was at the heart of the very many fine pieces he wrote for your newspaper. He also understood and explained the complexities (and sometimes contradictions) in Irish education with clarity and precision. Most importantly, he challenged us to be better, and that’s how it should be.
Education has lost a good friend and we send our deepest sympathies to Seán Flynn’s family and colleagues. – Yours, etc,
GERRY MURRAY,
