I work with a lot of creative people on the Clonmel Digital Campus and know they have high autonomy needs. I've also figured out some of their best innovation is a collective result. My students need a little consideration from the Irish government so they might be able to earn more than 4500 euro a year without losing their education grant. Some of my students work behind the bar on weekends. Other students who are based in Dublin are baristas in the coffee culture of Ireland. Some analysts believe Irish coffee shops have reached a saturation point. Nearly all of the Sunday papers in Ireland covered the law suit Brenda Romera has launched against the University of Limerick, alleging UL damaged her reputation concerning her running (or not running) UL's Masters programme in game design. Another creative woman, Sinead Gleeson, has released a collection of essays called Constellations: Reflections from Life. I'm reading it at the moment and highly recommend it.
