Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Greek life is present at Trinity, but it definitely does not dominate the social scene. Kappa Kappa Gamma is the only sorority that is nationally recognized. Ivy, one of the other sororities, was previously Tri Delta. Psi Upsilon and Alpha Delta are the two nationally-recognized fraternities, and Saint Anthony’s Hall, better known as the Hall, is a fraternity with both male and female members. Cleo is an all-inclusive literary society that provides an alternative social scene from the mainstream. In general, the sorority parties are held off campus and closed to the public, while the fraternities are better known for the publicly open Late Night.

As for Greek life at Trinity, take advantage of it—you will find yourself with some great friends and fun parties. If you choose to ignore it, you will still have plenty to do, as well. Greek life is pretty visible here, but not in a bad way. If you choose to partake in it, that is fine, and if you chose not to, well, that is fine, too. Most times, the sororities do not throw parties open to the public, but the fraternities all certainly do, and there is a specific fraternity party for every different personality type. Just don’t expect the beer to be of high quality . . . .

Greek Life Is Changing

Greek life used to dominate the social scene, but recent alcohol policies have forced an effusion of dorm room parties. Don't know what the future will hold, but due to the dangerous nature of Hartford most social events are nearly always school exclusive.

Huge part of the school atmosphere, whether or not you are involved. There is the occasional fun night out, but for the most part the scene gets old after a while. A couple are exclusive, and have had issues with kids not being welcome and even demeaned. The school needs to encourage a different kind of community.
