Trinity College Students Tell It Like It Is
'In a quiz that was created by a Trinity student and distributed through our AIM profiles, this student tested how 'Trin' we all were. One of the questions that you had to answer as true to get a point toward being 'Trin' was that you had talked about transferring every day of your freshman year. I answered true to that question. Since then, however, I have viewed a trying freshman year as the key to a wonderful experience. The reasons I went to Trinity are not the reasons I stayed. The people, the professors, and the opportunities are all aspects of the school that can only be explained in a brochure, never really experienced in all their glory."
There's so much to a school that a brochure just can't tell you. So why not take it from the experts, the students themselves! Hear what Trinity students have to say about...
Academics
'In several classes, professors have been known to bring in cake or beer, and even invite students over to their houses for hors d'ouevres. One professor even cooked his students a three-course meal during class!'
Campus Housing
'One of the advantages of Trinity is that you are guaranteed housing all four years, so you never have to worry, no matter how bad your housing lottery number is.'
The Local Atmosphere
'The evidence of a once illustrious and successful community is found in the large Victorian houses on the streets surrounding Trinity, but the neighborhood is now poor, and can be disconcerting if prospective students and their parents aren't expecting it.'

The College Prowler Process
While writing our series of college guides, we felt it was critical that our content was unbiased and unaffiliated with any college or university. By hiring current students as authors, we strive to create college guides that truly represent each campus. Our guides cover both the good and the bad, and whether survey responses point to recurring trends or varying opinions, these sentiments are directly and proportionally expressed through our guides.
From the very beginning, student writers gather the most up-to-date stats, facts, and inside information on their colleges. They fill each section with student quotes and summarize the findings in editorial reviews. In addition, each school receives a collection of letter grades (A through F) that reflect student opinion. Once a guide is written, additional college students serve as editors and check for accuracy even more extensively. This same process is applied to all of the 258 colleges and universities College Prowler currently covers. Each guide is the result of endless student contributions, hundreds of pages of research and writing, and countless hours of hard work. All of this has led to the creation of a student information network that stretches across the nation. It’s no easy accomplishment, but it’s the reason that our guides are such a great resource.
