Each year, the Trinity Central Societies Committee (CSC) hosts the Society of the Year Awards to celebrate the hard work of committee members from Trinity’s 120+ student societies. 

Speaking at the event on Tuesday, Linda praised committee members for the talent, passion, and generosity they give to their societies, which contribute hugely to the university experience of thousands of Trinity students each year. 

Following her speech, Linda presented the ‘Best Event’ award, which was awarded to the Literary Society for their ‘Murder Mystery Dinner’ event (in feature image).

This year, there were a total of 18 awards, including two new categories: the Irish Language Award, presented to DU Modern Languages Society; and the Postgraduate Engagement Award, presented to the Hiking Society. Other awards on the evening included the Judges’ Choice Award, presented to the Women’s Health Society; the Societies Choice Award, presented to the Filipino Society; and the Best Overall Society Award, presented to Trinity Orchestra.
