Trinity College President Joanne Berger-Sweeney. Courtesy of Trinity College Trinity College, once associated with so-called frat bros, has remade the student body to be more diverse, creating a better outlook for graduate employment. In an interview with Barron’s, President Joanne Berger-Sweeney reflected on the continuing efforts to strengthen and broaden Trinity’s student body, six years after she was hired by the selective liberal-arts college in Hartford, Conn., to do so. Berger-Sweeney, the college’s first female and first Black president, was hired by Trinity—long a feeder to the financial-services industry—to strengthen the student body in 2014. She previously had served at Wellesley College, Harvard University, and Tufts University. Today, the college is “more racially and ethnically diverse, and it is more socioeconomically diverse, but it’s strong on all the academic metrics,” Berger-Sweeney says. “We’ve provided a more valuable education to students who come through.”
