Description
Summary:The author discusses the operation of the Catholic Workers’ College (CWC) in Dublin between 1951 and 1966. Founded by the Society of Jesus to offer education to working-class adults, the CWC came to occupy a significant place in Irish religious, educational, and social life, garnering high esteem for its work. Modeled on Plater College in Oxford, England, the CWC was shaped profoundly by its first prefect of studies, Edward Joseph Coyne (1896–1958), and his deputy and eventual successor, Edmond Kent (1915–99).
