Trinity-in-San-Francisco is a semester-long program that employs the wealth of resources in the San Francisco Bay Area to investigate the American urban experience.  San Francisco has many identities, "golden gate," city of arrival for ethnically diverse communities, gateway to the Pacific Rim, wellspring of American social movements, and center of technological and artistic innovation.  Students explore dimensions of these identities while they develop discipline-specific skills in analysis, research, and writing.

The program consists of several rotating forum topics for students to choose from. Forums combine academic study with fieldwork, research, and internships, covering topics on city government, community and culture studies, Gay/Lesbian history, and urban planning.  Courses are taught by locally-based adjunct faculty of Trinity College, and are enhanced by special presentations by Bay Area community leaders, artists, scholars and writers.
