Is it that Mr McCarthy is praising philosophy of All Hallows?

Dublin's All Hallows College, which is affiliated to DCU has announced the appointment of Dermot McCarthy as the new chairman of the board.

The paragraph below is from its press release. Is it that Mr McCarthy is praising the skills-based and action-oriented philosophy of the Vincentians?

"Dr McDevitt observed that Mr McCarthy’s commitment to community involvement compliments the Vincentian skills-based and action-oriented philosophy. He said, “Dermot’s high-level skills, knowledge and experience will facilitate All Hallows in our mission to develop the potential of people and society to work together towards positive growth and change."

Occasional Scribbles wishes Mr McCarthy every success in his new job.

Glad to see the OPs on the ball.

And you appear to share my views on Vincent Twomey.
