Abstract
Acronyms can be useful sometimes. Let’s mint a new one, TAASOLC, see Fig 1. Next describe what TAASOLC means and tell a thread of a story. Continue by describe a solution with a list of quantifiable action items, based on community engagement models, for solving an education problem and a community development problem. The problem is increasing the number of students successfully completing a third level institute and (this conjunction is essential) at the same time gradually improving standards. The best way of getting the community engaged with a college, and a new 21st century Irish university, is to increase the number of success stories of all graduates, especially local ones, and to provide a pathway to lifelong employment and well as lifelong learning while doing what it can to eliminate poverty in the communities around the constituent campuses of the TUD.
