An Extreme Weather Plan for outdoor events will be enacted only in the event of extraordinary weather such as lightning or exceptionally high winds; tented events will remain outdoors in the event of seasonable rain, wind, and temperatures. The decision to enact an Extreme Weather or Rain Plan will be communicated with Reunion attendees directly to the email address used to register for the weekend and with signage around campus.

Please be advised that photographs and video will be taken throughout the weekend for use on Trinity’s website, on social media, in College publications, and in other media. By attending this event, you and your guests consent to the College photographing or videotaping you and your families, including children, and using these images without additional permission from you.

Our dedicated students will be offering golf cart service throughout the weekend. To request a ride, please flag down a driver or call 860-297-2222 or 860-297-5394. If you require campus transportation beyond this, please contact Campus Safety at 860-297-2222.

Food N Stuff is Trinity’s student food and hygiene product pantry available to all students for free. It is located on the lower level of Mather next to the main stairwell. Food N Stuff is a collaboration between the Sustainability Office, the Office of Community Service and Civic Engagement, the Bantam Network, P.R.I.D.E., WGRAC, and the Office of International Students and Scholars.

A surprising amount of food insecurity exists on campus, especially during academic breaks. We invite Reunion attendees to help maintain Food N Stuff by bringing unopened, nonperishable foods and hygiene products for the pantry to the collection box at Reunion Headquarters in the Cave.

The most requested items include:

• Cereal
• Pasta and sauce
• Rice
• Trail mix
• Canned fruits
• Canned meats (Spam, tuna, etc.)
• Cooking oil sprays (olive, avocado, etc.)
• Multicultural foods
• Gluten-free foods
• Beverages

The name tags used throughout the weekend aren’t just to refresh your memory of the names of classmates! Look for alumni donning special ribbons signifying milestone Reunion celebrations, membership in giving societies, volunteer work, and more.

Trinity College’s strategic plan calls for us to build on Trinity’s historic past to ensure a vibrant, sustainable future. As part of that goal, the Office of Alumni Relations collaborated with the College’s sustainability coordinator to incorporate aspects of the College’s Sustainability Action Plan throughout the weekend. Some examples of sustainability-conscious elements of the weekend include but are not limited to:

• Providing water bottle filling stations around campus
• Increasing plant-based food options
• Reducing food waste
• Reducing use of plastic plates, cups, and cutlery
• Creating campus signage that is evergreen and may be used at future events
• Offering composting options for biodegradable waste on the Main Quad
• Reusing or composting plant and floral decor
