Dear Class of 2014,
As you welcome our breezy San
Antonio Autumn days and settle into this semester, hopefully you’ll take
advantage of sitting in those inviting white chairs or big rocks located
between Northrup Hall and the Coates Library. Make an effort to interact with
nature and enjoy congregating with friends or just read a book. It’s a known
fact that when we’re outside we feel better because we feel connected. more >>
Rita Urquijo-Ruiz
Welcome to the Club
Last
weekend, I attended a meeting of the Trinity National Alumni Board (NAB). For the past six years I’ve been a member of
this group of alumni volunteers, meeting three weekends a year and working on
projects to support and advance Trinity in-between those meetings. We’re just a small part of the 26,000
existing Trinity alumni, many of whom are members of local chapters around the
country, or merely volunteers who help Trinity find and attract students,
assist current students to begin their careers, pursue graduate or professional
education, guest lecture in classes, and represent and help our University in
myriad other ways. more>>
