After growing up in Hartford and earning a bachelor’s degree at Trinity College, Haben Abraham ’10, LCSW, has returned to campus as the director of the Trinity Counseling and Wellness Center. “In coming back to Trinity and serving in this capacity, I’d like to help students build their own wellness practice,” Abraham said.
Thursday, December 14, on the eve of final exams, students gathered at the Raether Library and Information Technology Center to pursue activities other than studying.
The Trinity College Chapel hosted the 64th annual Christmas Festival of Lessons and Carols on Sunday, December 10, marking the beginning of the holiday season for the Greater Hartford community.

A new silver-topped staff donated to the Trinity College Chapel will usher in the annual Christmas Festival of Lessons and Carols this year. Alumnus Brendan W.

A group of Trinity College students recently attended a Connecticut Forum discussion with documentary filmmaker Ken Burns. “I was motivated to learn more about documentaries, knowing from Burns that they are no less creative than scripted films,” writes Vy Duong ’26, a double-major in political science and film studies.
Zeynep Su Oguzer ’26 participated in the launch of the Environmental Protection Agency’s National Environmental Youth Advisory Council (NEYAC) in Washington, D.C. “Whether I want it to or not, climate change will always be part of my life. It’s something that I can’t close my eyes to,” she said.
