Letter to the Editor: Feedback from alumni Michael Drudge

Michael Drudge, Guest Columnist • October 31, 2024

The Trinitonian report on the state of broken and scarce elevators on campus was propitious, coinciding with Alumni Weekend.

Having once served as Trinitonian managing editor, I always pick up a copy of the paper when I am on campus.

I was appalled to read that mobility-challenged students (and their friends and families) face such difficulties. Alumni give a lot of money to this university. We expect basic infrastructure to be maintained and enhanced. I mentioned this to Dr. Beasley at a reunion brunch. She agreed the problem needs to be fixed.

I salute reporter Robin Bernal for this well-written investigation. Keep up the good work.

About the Contributor

Skylar Savarin, Visual Editor

Whattup! My name is Skylar Savarin (she/her/hers), and I am the Visual section editor! I am a third-year double majoring in Human Communication and Art. I am from Memphis TN, and I spend a lot of time listening to music produced there, including some from my own family and friends! I myself am more into the visual realm of art, of course, but I also have a love for writing--it's all storytelling. That's why I joined the Trinitonian! Being a part of a publication that tells the story of our community, through both written and visual expression, is a great way to stay connected to, involved with, and immersed in the Trinity experience.
