See the Winners of Trinity’s First Room of the Year Contest

Bantams with some of the best nests on campus have been named the winners of Trinity College’s first Room of the Year contest.

After students submitted photographs of their rooms to enter the contest earlier this spring, a panel of judges comprising students and staff selected the finalists, and members of the Trinity community and the public voted for their favorites.

“From cozy corners to creative setups, the finalists have shown off some seriously impressive spaces,” said Caitlin Swan, social media manager in Trinity’s Office of Communications and Marketing, which ran the contest.

The winners are:

First Place:

Matthew Parrella ’25 – Goodwin-Woodward Residential Community

Second Place:

Eleanor Raspa ’27 – Hansen Residential Community

Third Place:

Baile Myriam Fleur Benedicte ’25 – Summit North Residential Community

First prize is $300; second prize is $150; and third prize is $75. Winners have their choice of a VISA card or Amazon gift card.
