150TH ANNIVERSARY

CELEBRATING 150 YEARS AND MORE For more than 150 years, Trinity has transformed challenge into opportunity. Resilient, creative, and enterprising, we are heirs of a dynamic past and stewards of a promising future. In 2019, Trinity celebrated its historic 150th Anniversary with a campus-wide party, record-setting Alumni Weekend, and more. The celebrations wrapped up in the fall and winter, but our drive and vision remain fixed on a bright future.

Alumni Weekend 2019

A record-setting 1,500 graduates returned to campus to celebrate Trinity’s milestone anniversary. Alumni reconnected with professors at Fiesta with the Faculty, climbed Murchison Tower, and partied the night away on Oakmont Court. Reunion giving also set a record at more than $3.5 million.

Capping Off the Year

More than 100 undergraduate and graduate students became Trinity alumni during 2019 Winter Commencement, the final campus event of the University’s 150th year.

Momentous Music

In October, the Trinity Symphony Orchestra premiered Trinity, a threepart symphony written by music composition professor Brian Bondari and conducted by music professor Joseph Kneer. True to its namesake, Trinity is split into three movements, which roughly signify the past, present, and future: “Ethos,” “Pathos,” and “Logos.”
