The Bantam Network

This mentoring program helps students successfully transition to college life during the first year. It builds a sense of community, allowing you to get to know students, faculty, and staff members and connecting you with the resources you need to navigate any challenges you encounter.

Powerful Community

You’ll join a network of Bantams who embody the Trinity spirit—entrepreneurial, creative, passionate, purpose-filled difference makers.
