Trinity purchased the City Vista apartments in January 2017, and this spring semester marks a full year of Trinity students living in the off-campus complex. Students noted the benefits of living in the apartments, including increased independence and close proximity to campus, but students also found challenges in the new living space. Despite maintenance issues and the large expense of living at City Vista, students found overall experience to be good. Many of the issues this year have been resolved by the Residential Life staff.
