The Trinity Academic CenterThe creation of the Trinity Academic Center will ensure Trinity’s long-term academic excellence by supporting Trinity’s key academic objectives:
• Contemporary academic classrooms and laboratories are essential to support 21st Century curricula and pedagogy across many disciplines;
• Competition for top students and faculty today depends heavily upon the quality and modernity of academic facilities;
• Creativity in the modern academic environment demands state-of-the- technology and lab equipment which places significant demands on the infrastructure --- electrical, structural, mechanical, air handling, environmental controls --- requiring new or upgraded systems throughout.
• Convenience, access and safety are all high priorities for contemporary students and faculty, requiring academic buildings that can accommodate a broad range of physical needs and that have fire and life safety systems that operate according to modern standards.
29
The new Academic Center site plan includes new parking lots on the lower southwest corner of the campus (current Trinity Center lot) and a new entrance for traffic at the gate facing the intersection of Franklin & Lincoln. This will relieve traffic congestion on the front of the campus and Cuvilly drive. Commuters parking in these lower lots can access the Academic Center through the atrium at the auditorium and take the elevators to the main floor, traversing to Main Hall and Alumnae Hall from the Academic Center.
