On this day in 1975, RTÉ reported that UCDSU was making contraceptives available to students; challenging the law and opening up a national conversation.

We kicked off the 25/26 year of training this evening in @ucddublin! Lots of discussions around student engagement, co-creation and partnership ☺️ Thank you so much to @UCDSU for organising this session!

Thinking today, on the tenth anniversary of the Berkeley tragedy, of Aoife Beary, Olivia Burke, Eoghan Culligan, Ashley Donohoe, Lorcán Miller, Niccolai Schuster and Eimear Walsh, and of their family and friends. They will always be remembered as part of the @ucddublin community.

UCD Students' Union Welcomes New Heuston-UCD Bus Services but Highlights Ongoing Concerns @busconnects @ucddublin @lawlessj ucdsu.ie/news/heuston-ucd-up…
Thank you to everyone who has signed our petition to save the only direct bus link between Heuston Station and UCD! 🙌 We are close to 3,000 signatures, and it’s clear how valued this link is to both students and staff. 🧵
1) In recent months, we’ve heard from numerous UCD students who rely on the 145 bus route from Heuston Station to Belfield. The upcoming changes under BusConnects Phase 6A will impact not only students but also staff who commute from outside Dublin. 🧵

RTÉ chose to report on the cultural impact of the 46a ending but hasn’t covered the real, practical challenges caused by the loss of the 145 route. The 46a has suitable replacements, while this change leaves many without comparable options. @joeliveline @rtenews

4/ Disembarking from one mode of public transport during Dublin’s rush hour and transferring to another can often be an exercise in futility. For some this change also introduces accessibility challenges, making it harder to get to campus safely and efficiently.
5/ We’re asking for your help in amplifying this message. Please take a moment to read, share, and sign our petition: my.uplift.ie/petitions/save-…
