Everyone’s Irish on St. Patrick’s Day, so President Claude Lajeunesse invited the Concordia community to join him for coffee, cookies and live Irish music on March 17 in the atrium of the J.W. McConnell building.

Joining him in a bit of a jig in the photo at right are (centre) Brent Gerchicoff, president of the Concordia Irish Society, and Michael Kenneally, Director of the Centre for Canadian Irish Studies (right).

Also on hand were Courtney Elizabeth Mullins, the Queen of the St. Patrick’s Day Parade, her princesses, Irishman of the Year Peter Howlett, former Queen of the Parade and current Concordia student Stephanie Glezos, and members of the Concordia Irish Society.
