He was awarded an MA in 1773, an LTh in 1780, and charged as supervisor of clerics from Ulster at the college from 1774\u201389, and gained the DTh award; he was appointed superior in 1787 a position he held until 1815. He convinced Napoleon to consolidate the interests of the Scots and English Colleges into the Irish College, under the Fondation Irlandais, to rename rue du Cheval Vert to rue des Irlandais where the Coll\u00E8ge des Irlandais is. The appointment of Rev. Richard Ferris as superior of the United Colleges, challenged Dr. Walsh's influence."@en . . "John Baptist Walsh"@en . . . . . . . .
