50 Faculty Members with 32 graduate degrees. But degrees are just the first step in being a teacher at Trinity. There's the doctor and the lawyers, the reporter, the Lieutenant Commander; the natives of Denmark, Czechoslovakia, Germany, Colombia and Cuba; the teachers who have been here for over 30 years and the newcomers; the writers, the actors, the sculptors, and the singers. The one thing they all have in common? They love to teach.
