TRINITY TODAY 04 COLLEGE NEWS
The Pathways School hosted two series of live lectures, presented by around 30 Foundation Studies academics. More than 7000 students from 30 countries tuned in to learn about topics such as the chemistry of food waste, design solutions for a sustainable future, and using economics and accounting principles to understand the fundamentals of investing.
Dr Denis White, the Executive Director of Trinity’s Foundation Studies program from 1991 to 1998, released a book, The University Dream, documenting the rocky but rewarding journey of establishing our Foundation Studies program, and how the program became a benchmark for international education in Australia.

THE YEAR
A group of Residential College students established the Trinity Respect Committee to develop and implement programs that inform students about consent and respectful and positive behaviour within the College. The Kumergaii Yulendji committee was also officially launched (pictured) to recognise and promote matters related to the lives of Indigenous students in the College and to promote greater understanding of reconciliation and Indigenous culture.
Our Pathways Student Wellbeing team sent care packages to onshore Foundation Studies students during Melbourne’s extended lockdown. A flood of kind messages confirmed these were well received!
The Trinity Recreational Alpine Club (TRAC) went on a mid-year trip to Tasmania, when 30 residential students camped, hiked and explored the state for two weeks.
