Hello from the Long Walk

July 1, 2025

Hello, Trinity Faculty and Staff!

Today is my first official day as Trinity College’s 23rd president, and I wanted to send you a brief greeting. It brought me great joy to meet a number of you at our pop-up gatherings today, but I know many of you are away and are enjoying well-deserved time away from campus.

Simply put, your work is the heart of Trinity’s mission and why we are able to deliver our distinctive liberal arts education. Your dedication drives Trinity to a place of excellence. When you go the extra mile, our students notice. When we care about being a community that cares, our students feel supported.

I’ve added some additional thoughts in this video message for you: A Message from President Lugo. I wish all of you a festive July Fourth holiday and a restful summer. See you on the Long Walk!

Sincerely,

Dan Lugo
President of Trinity College
