No name yet for Limerick s new university

Limerick s Live 95 Search By Live95 News Team Limerick s second university still has to choose a name.  LIT and Atholone IT have been granted Technological Status with the new university due to open its doors in September, however concerns have been raised that the new institution has yet to have an official name.  One proposal is that it could be called the Technological University of Shannon Athlone and Limerick or TUSAL - the River Shannon being the main link between Limerick and Athlone.  However Minister Patrick O Donovan says that name could be confusing.
