Campus Strictness

Quick Stats

Students Are Most Likely to Get Caught...
  • Drinking in a freshman dorm
  • Having candles in your room
  • Parking illegally
  • Throwing snowballs off the roof of the dorms

Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Students who are resident assistants (RAs) are allowed to write other students up for drinking and will sometimes have little power trips, but the Campus Safety officers are, for the most part, pretty reasonable.

The Trinity administration is reasonable in understanding that it is better that students drink in the sheltered atmosphere of Trinity, with friends, a bed, and even EMT-trained students close by, than for them to drive to an unsafe bar in the middle of the city, drink too much (as most freshmen tend to do) and then, to cap off the night, drive (swerve) home. Students are generally warned or written up before any serious penalties are imposed, and campus police tend to simply confiscate a student’s alcohol instead of pursuing disciplinary action.

Campus Strictness

one of the RAs in my dorm is insanely strict and constantly yells at people and writes them up, even just for making noise, and doesnt give warnings. every other RA on campus is pretty lenient though

Responsibility Is Left to Students

Alcohol is a big part of most college campuses, and Trinity is no exception. The frat parties can be wild, but often times people just get tipsy and good around. Campus police are present but tend not to get involved unless there's a fight or someone is medically in trouble. It's a nice breath of fresh air, and in general everyone handles themselves.

Abundance of Freedom

The President of Trinity has said himself, albeit in a private setting, that the legal drinking age should be reduced to 18 to reduce the likelihood of excessive underage drinking in college. However he does advertise "discretion" and "drinking in moderation". That being said, there is little enforcement of rules to prevent underage drinking. However, my advice is still to be intelligent about it.
