Grainne McMorrow SC to be recognised with NUI Galway Alumni Award
Barrister Grainne McMorrow SC is set to be recognised in the 2019 NUI Galway Alumni Awards next month.
Ms McMorrow has been named the winner of the Alumni Award for Law, Public Policy and Government, sponsored by Ronan Daly Jermyn.
She completed her BA at NUI Galway in 1980 and her LLB in 1983, before calling to the Bar in 1958 and then the Inner Bar in 2000.
The Alumni Awards, now in their 20th year, will be presented at a gala banquet on Saturday 13 April 2019.
Professor Ciarán Ó hÓgartaigh, president of NUI Galway, said: “Our Alumni Awards programme recognises alumni who make a positive difference in the world and who are leaders in their chosen fields. Through their endeavours our mission is made manifest.
“I’m particularly pleased this year that we can honour a diverse group of alumni who have made a positive impact in the world – and for the world - both nationally and internationally.
“I congratulate each awardee and I look forward to welcoming them back to their alma mater for the Gala Banquet in April.”
