Colleges With a Conscience
This school is one of the colleges profiled in The Princeton Review's book, Colleges with a Conscience: 81 Great Schools with Outstanding Community Involvement. It was selected because of its record of having excellent service-learning programs and blending academics with community work.


In a recent letter from the President of Trinity, apparently Trinity has opted not to be included in the US News and World Report rankings anymore because they feel the rankings are not representative of the school. I'm sure it's not because they've dropped to 34th of liberal arts colleges. Somehow I think Williams and Amherst won't be opting out. Well, good thing they're still #1 in being thought of as white elitists. What the @#$% happened?!?!? Interesting that Trinity is considered one of the "Colleges with a Conscience"

hey- actually, I was just reading this and the dropping out of the rankings is apparently somewhat legit... this is in the new issue of Science and talks about how the ratings are really flawed, and apparently 60 liberal arts schools opted out this year...
