Why I Chose Trinity: I chose Trinity forits excellent academics, the vibrant cross country and track teams,and for the overall vibe of the campus. I love learning, soacademics were a huge part of my decision, since I wanted to getthe best learning experience possible. I'd heard (and seen) thatthe teachers at Trinity were great at what they do, so it felt likegoing here would be a good choice. The cross country and trackteams were also very open and great people to be around, and theyfelt like a family, which influenced me more than a little. Plusthe general vibe I felt when on campus made me feel that this wasthe kind of place I was looking for in a college
