Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Everyone seems to experience a similarly hard freshman year; Trinity is not perfect. Once you accept that, you can begin settling down, grow comfortable, and view this little oasis in the middle of Hartford as a home for the next four years. Quite a few Trinity students can’t wait for the beginning of September just to get back to school. Another experience everyone else seems to have in common at Trinity is a fierce loyalty to their alma mater—the love for the Bantam is only one example.

Well, now that you’re hip to all the facts and opinions about Trinity College, you without a doubt have a head start on all the other incoming freshmen. Whether you decide to spend the next four years of your life at Trinity or choose another college, learn to accept the college or university that you selected. Don’t be quick to give up or transfer. If half of the students who felt frustrated initially chose to leave Trinity, they never would have discovered what a great place it really is.

Transportation at Trinity College

Bad

As bad as Hartford is, the school still does very little for transportation. There is a shuttle, but it takes forever to come, often doesn't run, and only takes you to limited places. The shuttle also only drives you around campus, it won't take you off. The school won't drive you at certain times to places no matter how badly you need to get there. Also, if you can't get driven somewhere walking really isn't an option since the area around campus is incredibly dangerous. (There are often muggings and threats with knives/guns on campus cause there's no gate and people walk in but that's another story.)

Nightlife at Trinity College

If You Like to Remember Your Nights, It Sucks

You can't drink at any of the frats unless you're 21. It's also very hard to get in so if you're not one of the pretty, slutty girls.. good luck. The school doesn't provide anything for you to go to, so other than frats there's nothing to do. Nightlife is EXTREMELY boring.

Ehh

There really isn't anything there. There's no where around where you can go out to get a meal safely or anything, no fancy restaurants either. There really isn't anything to do outside of campus unless you have a car, then you can go places within like 20 minutes
