Trinity Experience
Trinity is unusual in that it's a small liberal arts college in a big city, and the program helps to take advantage of the sorts of events that a city provides. It also helps to encourage undergrads to start a lifelong journey of appreciating the arts in their communities.

Professor, Classical Studies
