Comparable Schools'
Diversity Grades:
College Prowler Take
The general consensus of Trinity students is that there is some diversity on campus, but that there is not much interaction between ethnic and cultural groups. The majority of Trinity students seem to be from the upper-middle class, white, and American. However, the cultural clubs really are relatively active around campus. Associations like AASA, nominally for Asian-Americans, welcome members from every background and often have culturally-themed get-togethers during the weeknights that are fun for a study break. Problems like racial profiling by Campus Safety officers and a lack of interaction between students of different backgrounds have been talked about a lot recently. While these are horrible situations that should not exist in the first place, the fact that they are being aired so much in the open does prove that the real majority of Trinity students are those who are concerned about these trends and eager to see them end.

Trinity is often criticized for the uniformity of its students and the small percentage of minority students. One of the least appealing aspects of Trinity is the homogeny of its population. Most Trinity students are white, middle- to upper-class Americans who are intelligent and looking for a school where they will be challenged, but will also have a chance to party and let loose on the weekends. Many administrators have tried to tackle the diversity issue by enticing more minority students to look at Trinity as a viable option, but their efforts have yet to be seen, as far as the student body is concerned. |

Trinity is not well known for its diversity. At a quick glance, it seems that everyone looks the same. However, with a closer look, it is clear that the statistics don’t lie and that diversity does exist at Trinity. The communities such as the Men of Color Alliance, Hillel, La Voz Latina, and Encouraging Respect of Sexualities (EROS) all support non-uniformity as well as help students feel comfortable in a relatively homogenous environment. |

It offers kitchen-use and weekly get-togethers for its members. Its members are of all different backgrounds. www.trincoll.edu/orgs/aasa
Political Activity
Democrats and liberal republicans seem to be about evenly matched on Trinity’s campus. Most students vote in the elections, and a good amount attend debates beforehand to learn about the different candidates for Student Government positions and their ideas for the school.
