Two sounds of Trinity's very real deficiencies have never been enough to generate efforts almost chickens came together to produce the first egg. And although good to ameliorate them. Apathy has been the over used excuse from the student body and professors and students are attracted by a reputation, am I naive to assume that once college handbooks for the campus' lack of creativity in developing intelligent upon a time people came to Trinity to expand their minds and a prestige developed solutions for its problems. But apathy in and of itself tells us nothing. Apathetic in from there? comparison to what? The 1960s? The students of that era deserve a little praise for Today; if you ask someone to describe Trinity they will talk about positions their concern and belief in positive change. But we cannot allow ourselves to be on certain lists and an "almost Ivy League" status.

Is Wesleyan University a more before they can move on. Some students come here for a name on a certificate without accurate portrayal of the world?

It is not, though this is not to imply we shouldn't aim to appreciating the opportunities they have arcmnd them. Meanwhile classes are just make it that way. Wesleyan and Trinity represent an interesting juxtaposition of "credits" and papers are things to hate and "get out of the way." Our generation has present and future. Let us grant Wesleyan its "progressive" reputation as a bastion a career pressure our parents often do no t understand. We enter the world in debt and of academic liberalism.

It's in line with its times. hope, I have noticed a strange phenomenon. People are afraid to be alone and Trinity, is experiencing the pains of necessary change which are currently because good studying demands solitude, they sacrifice it for a social experience afflicting all o'f America. These pains are due in large part to the legacy of the Reagan involving coffee, flirting and constant murmuring. Motivation often seems to come years which was not simply absorbed by Trinity but America as well. It was the from a focus on the end result, the necessity for graduation.
