Provost and Acting Dean TRINITY COLLEGE’S MISSION To be faithful to its founding purpose and to help its students face the challenges of the 21st century, and in supporting the mission of the University of Melbourne to be recognized as one of the world's great universities, Trinity College works to offer all students in all its programs a collegiate education which is increasingly comparable with the best in the world. Trinity offers 'large and liberal education' with emphasis on international awareness and on ethical values and social responsibility. A Trinity education promotes the highest standards of academic excellence in a context of personal and intellectual breadth. The College celebrates the diversity of backgrounds of its students, and - in upholding the principles of equity and diversity - works hard to offer a Trinity education to talented students from around Australia and around the world regardless of their means. The College draws on the strengths of its various programs, taking advantage of synergies within a unified college offering a range of educational programs, and works to develop the human and material resources needed to be a high-performing institution seeking always to do better for present and future generations of students. Trinity is proud to have a diverse population, with our students and staff coming from all over Australia and the world. The College stands firmly in the Anglican Christian tradition, but welcomes students of any faith and of none. Among the values that the College therefore encourages are:
TRINITY’S VALUES AND HISTORY Trinity College, a fully co-educational residential college in the University of Melbourne, is an academic institution established on Christian principles, in which each individual is valued and nurtured, and encouraged, helped, and expected to give his or her talents their fullest expression. The College aims to give as much personal attention as possible to the academic as well as the broader development of all its students and to their career and further study plans. Through the provision of teaching, educational resources, and opportunities for community service, cultural and spiritual experience and growth, and sporting and artistic endeavours, the College seeks to ‘add value’ to the education provided by the University. This includes not only specialist teaching in discreet subject areas, but also training in generic skills that will help equip our students for their entire careers. Trinity has been home to resident and non-resident students since 1872, and in 1883 was the first university college in Australia to admit women as non- resident students. It was also the first to provide a residential college facility for women with the establishment of the Trinity Women’s Hostel in 1886, now Janet Clarke Hall. Trinity’s residential college comprises a community of over 260 resident students and up to one hundred non-resident students, supported by a tutorial team of approximately fourteen resident and twenty six non-resident tutors drawn from across the University of Melbourne and the various professions. Trinity combines a traditional concern for personal growth and intellectual inquiry with an aim to foster a broad, international outlook and a life-long commitment to learning and community service. Women and men have made life-long friendships at Trinity for over a century, and today’s students look upon their time in College as one of the most enriching and significant times of their lives. EQUIPPING STUDENTS FOR PROFESSIONAL SUCCESS Over the years Trinity has served an important role in equipping young women and men for successful roles in public and professional life. Trinity graduates have gone on to achieve international prominence in an extraordinary variety of fields, showing leadership and outstanding achievement in the arts, business, law, medicine, political and public service, education and the Church, both in Australia and abroad. The commitment of the College to all-round excellence is reflected in the high number of Trinity students awarded Rhodes Scholarships, which are won on the basis of scholastic achievements, leadership, commitment to the public good, and such personal qualities as truth, courage, unselfishness and fellowship.

• the academic and pastoral mentoring program • the program of generic academic skills training • the contribution of visiting fellows who may assist, through occasional lectures and teaching, in the academic programs of the College. This program is available to all resident and non-resident students, while students from other colleges may attend the Trinity tutorials. Tutorials Trinity offers approximately ninety tutorials a week, making it one of the largest providers of tutorial education of all the colleges of the University of Melbourne. Tutors hold regular one-hour tutorial classes in their subjects, and are both encouraged and trained to be creative and dynamic in their teaching methods. Typically, the College organises tutorials for groups of four or more students, but will consider smaller tutorial classes on a case-by-case basis. Trinity has particular strengths in the areas of medicine (pre-clinical and clinical), law, commerce, and the humanities. Tutorials are held on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings throughout the academic year. Where tutorials are not available at Trinity, the College will seek tutorial assistance on behalf of the student from another college at the University of Melbourne. Mentoring As in institutions such as Harvard, Princeton and Oxford, Trinity College sees the provision of academic mentoring for all resident and non-resident undergraduate students as one of the most valuable contributions it can make to enhancing their university education. Academic mentors are usually College tutors or other members of College staff. Mentoring is aimed at encouraging and assisting all students to fulfil their potential in their studies and in their personal development, including assisting them in course and career choices. At Trinity, all resident and non-resident students are allocated a mentor whose role is to give guidance and academic advice to her or his students throughout the course of their University studies. Students are required to meet with their mentors formally at least twice per semester. Of course, the mentor is the first port of call for students whenever they have a question or concern about their academic progress, or about any aspect of their studies. All mentors report, through the Director of Mentoring, to the Dean, who from time to time will provide further advice and other assistance. The Director of Academic Studies and the Director of Mentoring are available to provide advice at any time. Of course, all students are welcome to speak with any of the College’s academic staff. Generic skills training The academic staff of Trinity College, along with the senior leaders of the University of Melbourne, are increasingly aware of the need for all students to be well-versed in the generic academic skills that cannot be directly taught within the formal university syllabus. In addition to its tutorial program, Trinity therefore runs periodic training sessions in generic academic skills, such as written and oral communication, research and exam preparation skills, and critical thinking. These seminars are invaluable in equipping students to work and study efficiently, and also in preparing them for the transition from university to professional life. TRINITY’S EXTRA-CURRICULAR LIFE By encouraging its students to take a full role in College and University life, and the life of the wider community, Trinity aims to foster qualities of leadership and participation, and to encourage students to seek new opportunities to learn and grow in areas that will complement their academic formation. Trinity students demonstrate talent, enthusiasm and creativity in art, music, drama, debating, literary pursuits, team and individual sports, spiritual and religious activities, and community service, as well as enjoying and organising a wide array of College social activities. Trinity is a place to become involved, and there is a range of ways in which the College helps students to develop their talents, and to enjoy their student years. The Trinity College Associated Clubs (TCAC) Committee was formed in 1934 to provide the central point of contact for student clubs and societies. It organises student activities in intellectual, cultural, sporting and social matters. The Dialectic Society, Musical Theatre Society, Wine Cellar, Billiards Room, Outreach and the Drama Club are just some of the societies in which students can be involved. Along with the various Transition and Orientation activities, the College Ball and sporting and cultural competitions, these clubs help provide a focus for students to become involved in community, intellectual, and social life. TRINITY’S FACILITIES FOR STUDENT LIFE The provision of facilities for study and accommodation, music, creative arts, sport and leisure are a vital part of Trinity’s contribution to its students’ education. Trinity’s magnificent grounds are immediately adjacent to the University of Melbourne and are within close walking distance of the city’s cultural and culinary precincts. Trinity aims to offer up-to-date resources for students to pursue their degree. The provision of comfortable study rooms, internet facilities and an excellent College Library complement Trinity’s easy access to university libraries, lecture rooms and labs, giving students a competitive edge in their quest for academic success. Accommodation At Trinity, each resident student is provided with her or his own room, furnished with a bed, desk, chair, bookshelves and wardrobe. Each building houses female and male students across a range of years and disciplines. Showers and toilets are shared by residents, as are laundry facilities, which are located in each building. Study The Leeper Library was founded in the earliest days of the College, and is housed in the Evan Burge Building, opened in 1996, which provides an attractive study environment for students. The Library contains about 65,000 volumes, and buys essential course material for student use each year. It also contains notable research collections in Law, Theology and Australian history. Outside of tutorial times, study rooms are available in the oldest and newest buildings in College - students may use the recently renovated nineteenth-century Leeper tutorial rooms, or the more modern Burge tutorial rooms, for study and discussion. Trinity has a well-equipped computer room, and an extensive computer network with connection points in every room. This provides access to the University network and the internet. The College is proud of its Multimedia Room, which showcases state-of-the-art resources, including an interactive touch-screen whiteboard and data projector. Music Trinity College has a strong tradition in the musical arts and houses several fine pianos and music practice rooms. The Chapel is home to a world-class organ and, of course, the Trinity College Choir, which is widely regarded as one of the finest collegiate Chapel choirs in the world. College musical soirees are held in the dining hall, and high-quality musicals are produced once a year. Sport The Bulpadock, an open space at the heart of the College, provides a focal point for sport and leisure at Trinity, and sporting teams are often seen practising on ‘the Bul’. The College has its own tennis and squash courts and is adjacent to the University sports grounds and gymnasium.
