dc.descriptionInvited reflectionen
dc.description.abstractRecently I attended one of the weekly public concerts hosted by University College Cork (UCC) as part of its community engagement activities. Although the music was sublime, like every other event I have attended in the Aula Maxima, I was distracted by the portraits of former university presidents looking down on the assembled crowd. The question posed by US journalist Rachel Maddow when invited to present awards at a ceremony in New York’s Rockefeller University came to mind (Greenfieldboyce, 2019). What’s up with the dude wall? But also, what do university dude walls do? What place, if any, have dude walls in contemporary public universities that aspire to break with their troubling heritages of elitism and extractivism, and promote more equitable and democratic futures? Decolonization movements have taught us that these are not frivolous questions.en
