Research suggests that how often people check social media − and how emotionally engaged they are with it − can influence sleep even more than how much time they spend online.
Trinity College
Trinity College looks like a traditional New England liberal arts school, but we act in some untraditional ways.
Our commitment to urban-global education, for example, is groundbreaking, as is our interdisciplinary Neuroscience Program and our First-Year Seminar Program, one of the earliest in the nation. We have also just added more than 20 young teacher/scholars to our faculty, and our faculty across the board is committed to collaboration with students on real-world research projects.
We continue to re-examine and transform the concept of liberal arts education because our graduates expect to thrive and to have a serious effect on the world.
Trinity’s 10:1 student/faculty ratio means access to teachers who have time to discuss your term paper in person, encourage your research project, and celebrate your success on Commencement Day. Choose from 39 academic majors in the liberal arts and sciences, including one in engineering, another program that is not traditional for a college like Trinity. Twenty-six interdisciplinary minors like human rights, Jewish studies, and African American studies give you even more choices.
World-wide study abroad, courses that include interaction with the city around us, and for-credit academic internships give you experience beyond the classroom.
