In the seminar series "Hot Topics for Student Health and Wellness" we address topics that matter to you and impact your life here at Trinity. This installment of the series is focused on the topic of healthy sexuality. If you are interested, please join us in the Nyberg Conference Room (upper Waybright) from 1-2:30 p.m.  Hosted by the Counseling Center.

Panel of Trinity Women in Pastoral Ministry

Join the conversation with five women, all graduates of Trinity, who are serving in Pastoral Ministry in five different denominations. They will each discuss their paths to ministry; their story of God’s leading to Trinity, through Trinity, to where God has them now. Come with questions or curiosity. Hear the “feet on the ground” challenges and encouragements they have faced. It’s always good to gather in fellowship and support. For more information, email tsw@tiu.edu, or the MDiv office at x8116.

The Graduate Admissions Office is happy to welcome three new team members this fall. The summer saw a series of transitions, but three new hires bring the office back to full strength.

Adam Dolezal recently started work as an Admissions Counselor, working with many of our MDiv and MA program applicants. Adam earned his MDiv at TEDS in May, and he brings knowledge and enthusiasm about Trinity into his new role.

Abhishek (Abhi) Kumar also started as an Admissions Counselor. Abhi grew up in India and came to the U.S. to earn his MDiv at Chapman Seminary in Evansville, Indiana. He will work with applicants to the MDiv, TEDS Counseling programs, and the MA in Leadership.

Alexandra Horn begins this week as the Visit & Events Coordinator for Graduate Admissions. She attended Biola University and attended the University of Illinois at Chicago for her graduate work. Her varied background and event planning experience make her a great fit in this position.

If you have been thinking about attending law school, you know that it is a big step, and you probably have some important questions like; will I be able to afford it?  Will school fit into my schedule?  Perhaps you’re even wondering if there’s a law school that shares your passion for Biblical truth. 

If these are the questions on your mind, then our upcoming Open House on Thursday, October 11 is just for you.  You’ll have the opportunity meet Trinity professors, students and graduates, and receive answers to the questions that matter most to you.   You will also learn about financial aid and our merit-based scholarships, and find out how you can earn a law degree by attending classes on Saturdays instead of weekdays.
