  • Annual Report 2017 Annual Report
    2017 ANNUAL REPORT 2017 ANNUAL REPORT CONTENTS Warden’s Report 2 Appendix 5 WARDEN’S REPORT 2017 Trinity is committed to inspiring and enabling students to achieve their best and to offer an experience that motivates these future leaders to make a thoughtful impact in life. To ensure we continue to fully meet this commitment, we spent much of 2017 planning for the future of Trinity. Our new Strategic Plan: Unlocking Exceptional Promise received sign-off from the Board in August, which heralded the beginning of the implementation of the most transformative strategy in the College’s history. Seven major initiatives were approved along with a host of enabling programs that support College operations. Major initiatives include an expanded scholarship program; a new Residential College building, which will be home to 100 students; establishment of a Centre for Indigenous Higher Education; new programs to increase research in the Theological School; fostering greater connection with our alumni; and establishment of a new Senior Common Room. We can look forward to an exciting 2018 and the years beyond as the initiatives in the new Strategic Plan are realised. The College continues to thrive, with one measure being that during the year, over 300 Residential College students, 2,150 Foundation Studies students and 150 Theological School students studied or lived at the College, joined by over 300 staff. As with any institution, there are arrivals and departures. A significant departure occurred with the retirement of Bishop James Grant (TC 1950 and TCTS 1957) in 2017. A fixture at Trinity for almost 70 years, admired by all and a friend of many, Bishop Grant was Trinity College Chaplain from 1970 to 1975.
