Carnival and Social Activism

Trinity For Change, the required social activism event for this semester is approaching fast! The actual event will be November 11 from 11 - 2 on the Esplanade. If your group has not already, please email Jasdeep at jsingh@trinity.edu with a definite answer as to whether you are participating. The event is hosted by TDC, SPURS sorority, Amnesty International, and TUVAC and the entire campus will be coming out to see this event, so we definitely want TDC groups recognized!

The week after Trinity For Change is Fall Carnival!! It was a big hit last year and that's no surprise! There will be free food, bouncy castles, cotton candy, and activity booths! Contact Daniel at dlauciri@trinity.edu if your group would be interested in running a booth. It's a great opportunity to advertise for your group. Either way, come out and have fun!
