Dr. Steven J. Osterlind Steve Osterlind recently lectured at Trinity College, Dublin, and set the ground work in motion for establishing a sister university between Trinity and MU. His work stems from his continuing experiences in Irish third-level education (post-secondary) beginning in 2004 when he was a Fulbright Scholar at the National College of Ireland. Since then, he has travelled to Ireland more than 15 times to lecture and work with faculty at several Irish universities, leading to two grant and five collaborative publications. Trinity College is the prize for MU. Founded in 1592 and the model “Setting the Ground Work” Faculty Highlight Dr. Steven J. Osterlind for Harvard, Trinity has a long and illustrious history in higher education across the globe. The campus covers some 40 acres of cobbled squares and green spaces, around buildings which represent the accumulated architectural riches of nearly three centuries. Some of the world’s top scholars in many disciplines lecture there. The sister university relationship with MU will encourage faculty exchanges for lecturing and research. It will also lead to student exchanges. Dr. Steven J. Osterlind lecturing at Trinity College
