Professor Diarmuid Hegarty, Founder and President of Griffith College, said, “The College is delighted to honour Michael Noonan for his long service as a public representative and Minister of Finance, Adam Harris as CEO and founder of Ireland’s national autism organisation AsIAm, and journalist Brian Jennings whose voice brings us the news on Morning Ireland each day. This continues the College’s long tradition of recognising notable individuals who have contributed at both national and international level.”
