Mini-Grant Program

In the fall of 2008, a sustainability mini-grant program was created through a $10,000 commitment from College President James F. Jones, Jr. The goal of this program was to enable members of the Trinity community to undertake relatively small-scale projects in order to advance the College's desire to be a more environmentally friendly institution.

The following project proposals were approved:

• Maggie Thomas '10 and Colby Tucker '09 started a student-run clothesline and drying rack program

• Jacob Prosnit '12 worked with the IT Department to develop and launch an electronic rideboard system
