Click here for video streaming David Schuld, Student Union Senator and alumnus of the Belfast Institute: I'm 20 and I'm sure a lot of other individuals here are the same age. What was it like when you were 20 growing up in the North? (2 min)
Click here for video streaming Dan O'Malley, Student Union President: At the time of the McCartney murder, the response from the IRA was that they stood ready to shoot those involved in the murder. When you heard that, what was your initial reaction? (1 min)
Click here for video streaming Francis Ryan SJ, Assistant Professor of English: You mentioned the crucial role of Clonard Monastery in working toward peace. But some feel the mainline churches have completely failed the Irish people in the lack of a prophetic role in speaking out for peace--not just the Irish churches but the English and American churches. What's your perspective? (5:30)

Someone in one of our meetings in Ireland last year said they didn't think a TRC (truth and reconciliation commission) would work. What are your thoughts about achieving reconciliation and restoring community? (8 min)
