Resident Assistants

For residential students, Resident Assistants (RAs) are located on each floor of the Trinity Apartments. RAs are college employees who have a primary focus of safety and are trained in First Aid and CPR. There is an RA on call from 5 p.m. to 8 a.m. all days that campus housing is open.

Evening Walking Escort

If a Trinity student does not feel safe traveling between the Campus Center and the Trinity Apartments, they are able to call the Resident Assistant on duty between the hours of 5 p.m. and 12 a.m.

Safe Community Living

The Student Handbook contains helpful information about safe community living, including procedures for fires and earthquakes, parking lot and car safety, and living in an urban environment.

Inclement Weather

In the event of severe weather conditions (or for other emergencies), the college may choose to close or start late. Students can call the Inclement Weather Line at 425.249.4805 for updates. Read more about the Inclement Weather Policy.
