Daniel G. Lugo meets with the Bantam at a December 4 welcome celebration a day after Lugo was announced as Trinity College’s 23rd president; he will assume his new role on July 1, 2025. Currently president of Queens University of Charlotte, Lugo also has served in administrative positions at three liberal arts colleges: Colby, Franklin & Marshall, and Carleton. Trinity Board of Trustees Chair Lisa Bisaccia ’78 wrote in her announcement that Lugo “stood out above a highly competitive pool for his track record of accomplishments and for his deep commitment to the value of a liberal arts education and to fostering a sense of belonging on campus.”

Snow day!

Two brave souls—perhaps using trays from the dining hall—sled down the hill near the Trinity Chapel during the blizzard of February 19, 1972, when 11 inches of powder pounded the Hartford area. The image was taken by James G. Kirschner ’75, part-time assistant to then-College photographer David Lowe, and was selected to be the cover of Trinity’s holiday card the following winter.
