Trinity has a 30% acceptance rate, so if you are not qualified for Bates or Colby, I wouldn’t so casually bank on Trinity. With all due respect, your spelling isn’t great (you spelled definitely wrong in several posts), so I would be careful about talking about schools being beneath you. Trinity is not slam dunk easy to get into and has very strong academics, particularly in some departments. It is known for its strong English, Economics, Public Policy/Law and Classics Departments to name just a few. Trinity might not appreciate your attitude about “ghettos,” and in fact many students have become deeply involved at community service opportunities, the likes of which don’t exist at most other schools. Don’t forget also, Trinity is located in Connecticut’s state capital which affords students to have internship opportunities in state government, corporate headquarters, hospitals, museums, etc. Consider this also- many good professors might be more drawn to take a job in a state capital, two hours from New York, than some remote town in Maine. Take a good look at Trinity and inform yourself before so blithely throwing it under the bus.
