ABOUT

Trinity Times is an undergraduate student newspaper founded in 2020 and based primarily in Trinity College. Our goal is to investigate topics in legitimacy, anti-colonialism, and sustainability—with both broad, anecdotal strokes and specific, well-wrought analyses. This year, we have five digital and print issues with a circulation of 800, including a special edition in the summer and two each in the fall and winter sessions. The paper publishes under four columns: Arts & Culture, Features & Op-eds, Science & Engineering, and Editorials.

Land Acknowledgement

The Trinity Times recognizes the privilege we have today to operate on space stewarded by the Wyandot, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, and the Misi-zaagiing on Treaty 13 land covered by the Dish-with-One-Spoon wampum belt covenant. Our articles will be anti-colonial and resistant to bigotry, prejudice, and racism towards the Indigenous Peoples of this land. We are responsible for proving at every moment that we operate with the deepest recognition of our status as settlers and work rigorously to end institutional violence. We firmly advocate for taking the necessary steps against ongoing genocide and gender-based systemic violence, specifically, the 94 Calls to Actions for Truth and Reconciliation including Child welfare & education, Language, History, Health, Legal Justice, and Reconciliation, as well as the 231 Calls for Justice from the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls in support of the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit (niizh manidoowag) movement.

Equity Statement

We extend the same compassion to all strategically undervalued and marginalized groups and are committed to providing a safe and inclusive space for all our staff. We will happily provide accommodations for any accessibility concerns to the best of our abilities/within our power, including but not limited to modified/personalized schedules, mobility, and sensory accommodations, such as spatial, visual, and auditory. We will support any case requesting assistive devices/accessible writing technology from the TCM under Trinity College’s policies. We condemn systemic and social normalizations of ableism, including sanism and anti-neurodiversity, particularly that which is conveyed through language and written forms, and we recognize the intersections of Disability Justice with other strategically undervalued and marginalized identities such as BIPOC, 2SLGBTQIA+, and Gender Diverse communities. In light of this, we will provide surgical & K/N95 equivalent grade masks, hand sanitizer, virtual/online alternatives, and other required items/accommodations upon request at all meetings and for the newsroom/office hours.
