Opportunity and Summary of Position

Here at Trinity, we value intellectual curiosity, diversity and inclusion, and social responsibility. As a small residential college, personal interaction is the heart of what we do best. And as a community, our vision is characterized by inclusion and diversity and firmly grounded in respect for all members – students, staff, faculty, friends, alumni, and our neighbors in and around Hartford. Joanne Berger-Sweeney, President

Trinity College invites applications and nominations for the position of the Vice President for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Reporting to President Joanne Berger-Sweeney, the Vice President will lead a highly selective coeducational institution of 2,200 students, 210 faculty, and approximately 400 staff in its efforts to create an environment that is welcoming, inclusive, respectful, and free from discrimination, intolerance, and harassment. Aligned with its mission, Trinity seeks to identify a Vice President who integrates inclusive excellence as a core value and effective practice to engage, connect, and transform community. Trinity College was founded in 1823 and is one of the few highly selective, small liberal arts institutions in an urban setting. Located in Hartford, Connecticut’s capital city, 52 percent of Trinity’s students are women, 20 percent are students of color, and 10 percent are international students. Trinity’s mission is to prepare students to be bold, independent thinkers who lead transformative lives. The Vice President for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion will be a key member of the President’s senior administrative team. The Vice President will provide leadership and collaborate with faculty, staff, students, alumni, and the broader Hartford network connected to the college to advance Trinity’s vision of an inclusive and equitable community. The ideal candidate will have a documented history of successfully developing and advancing diversity and inclusion programs coupled with in-depth knowledge of theory and practice serving a diverse group of constituents including students, faculty, staff, alumni, and the community. Candidates should possess excellent interpersonal and communication skills and abilities to inspire, influence, and build relationships. Additional information about Trinity is available at www.trincoll.edu. Recruitment will continue until the position is filled. Information about how to nominate someone or to apply for this opportunity can be found in the section titled “Procedure for Candidacy.”

Opportunities and Expectations for Leadership This is an opportunity for a dynamic, confident, catalytic, collaborative, and insightful professional to partner with the full Trinity community to advance the college’s vision of an inclusive, equitable community. The Vice President will work to develop and advance policies and practices that promote inclusion and equity. The new Vice President for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion will be responsible for addressing the following critical leadership issues, among others: Provide leadership in diversity, equity, and inclusion to the Trinity community: Traditionally, this position has been primarily student focused. The campus community needs in its next Vice President a strategic partner who will build bridges, serve as mentor and guide and engage with all Trinity constituents (faculty, staff, students, alumni and the broader Hartford network connected to the college), and articulate and communicate a strategic vision for diversity, equity, and inclusion. Key areas of opportunity include the development of inclusive recruitment processes for both faculty and staff; working to create and sustain a welcoming and inclusive campus culture; and providing training on the pedagogy to teach diverse learners. Design, lead, and support data collection and analysis for decision-making around diversity, inclusion, and equity efforts: An important priority for the new Vice President for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion is the ability to use data to understand climate and to make interventions throughout the institution. The Vice President will measure the impact of initiatives quantitatively and qualitatively, use that data to support informed and collaborative decision-making, and report these efforts to develop a culture of accountability. Assess and determine the structure of the new office of diversity and inclusion: The new Vice President for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion will have the opportunity to partner with the senior management team, students, faculty and staff to re-imagine and build comprehensive diversity and inclusion efforts at Trinity. The Vice President will be expected to assess Trinity’s current programs, and based on previous experiences and diversity literature/scholarship, determine what is needed for Trinity to achieve its goals. Serve as an ambassador on campus, in Hartford, and beyond: Trinity College is an institutional leader in the City of Hartford, a global city which is home to ethnic and cultural groups from around the world. Hartford is home to a large and vibrant Caribbean population including large communities from Jamaica, Puerto Rico, and the West Indies. A strategic priority of the college is enhanced community engagement. The Vice President for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion will actively engage and help strengthen linkages with the Hartford community, with a particular focus on the neighborhoods surrounding our campus.

The Role of the Vice President for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

There are several spheres of influence for the new Vice President who will collaborate with the college’s diverse stakeholders to provide leadership and strategic direction in creating and nurturing an environment that is welcoming, inclusive and respectful, and whose members feel equal ownership of the community and accountability to one another. The Vice President reports to the President and serves as a member of her senior administrative team, contributing to strategic institutional discussions and planning.

The Context Twenty years ago, Trinity College was at the forefront of colleges and universities in institutionalizing at the highest levels efforts to diversify its campus and provide the support necessary to increase access and effect cultural change. Our first and only chief diversity officer established this work in a comprehensive way beginning in 1999 and has woven multiculturalism into the fabric of the college, aiding in the recruitment of a diverse student body and the development of campus policies and initiatives to support all members of the campus community. Along the way, Trinity has shown leadership nationally, including with the founding at Trinity of the Consortium on High Achievement and Success. The impending retirement of the college’s chief diversity officer coincides with an especially important moment in the life of the college and its work to build an inclusive community. Trinity has a new strategic plan, Summit, which embraces the college’s particular opportunity and responsibility for developing citizens who “think critically, embrace complexity, and engage across differences in building a free, just society.” Among the strategic plan’s broad goals is to design a distinctive, relevant liberal arts education that positions Trinity increasingly as a first-choice destination for students, faculty, and staff. The Vice President will engage collaboratively with colleagues and stakeholders to implement the strategic plan through work to attract and retain the highest caliber of students, faculty, and staff; strengthen programming and campus initiatives that encourage civic engagement, nurture community values and shared responsibility; and foster an inclusive campus community that embraces diversity and complexity, engages across differences with integrity and empathy and participates actively in the life of the college.

This work builds on efforts led by Trinity College President Joanne Berger-Sweeney, including the development of the Bantam Network mentoring program and the launch of the Campaign for Community. Those and other ongoing efforts to build community and advance excellence have moved the institution forward significantly in just the last few years. A new vision for enrollment complete with more inclusive policies and practices has resulted in the recruitment of the most diverse and most academically talented first-year classes in the history of the college. At the same time, the national and global contexts in which the new Vice President takes on this role at Trinity require our attention and consideration. Federal policies relating to immigration, discrimination, financial aid, and others affect our community directly and unevenly. The Vice President must be attuned to the complexities of these national and international contexts and work to support, inform, and guide the institution in addressing them on our campus and with external constituencies. Meanwhile, as the nature of public discourse remains poor and society is increasingly divided, the Vice President must work to promote among our community—students, faculty, staff and alumni—a more productive and respectful discourse, steadfastly demonstrating our institutional values and, in turn, the value of a Trinity education in advancing the public good.

Trinity College is where the liberal arts meet the real world.

History Founded in 1823 as Washington College (the name was changed in 1845), Trinity has Episcopal roots but is not religiously affiliated. It was the second college in Connecticut at the time. A year after opening, Trinity moved to its first campus, which consisted of two Greek Revival-style buildings. In 1872, an important step toward the future was taken when the trustees sold the “College Hill” campus to the City of Hartford as the site for a new State Capitol. Six years later, the college moved to its present 100-acre location. The late 19th and early 20th century was a formative period for Trinity as the industrialization of the American economy began to creep into curricula and institutional practices of the college. As the model of the modern university began to evolve, Trinity reaffirmed its commitment to remain a liberal arts college and to support expansion to a regional institution. In 1968, Trinity made a commitment to the admission of a substantially larger number of African-American and other minority students with financial aid provided as needed. Less than a year later, the trustees voted to admit women as undergraduates for the first time. Over the next twenty years, the college grew enrollment to 1,800 and increased faculty to over 200. In 1995, Trinity began to devote increased attention to the needs of the surrounding neighborhoods, working to ease many of the social and economic problems so common to American cities. Central to that initiative is the “Learning Corridor,” which includes a public, Montessori-style elementary school; a 6-12 magnet school now associated with the College; a math, science, and art high school resource center; a center for families and child care; the first Boys & Girls Club in the country to be located at a college; and a health and technology center. Throughout its history, the college’s commitment to liberal education has remained steadfast amid continuing change. By maintaining a rigorous curriculum grounded in the liberal arts and sciences, the college can most effectively help students discover their strengths, develop their individual potential, and prepare themselves for lives that are both personally satisfying and valuable to others. With this mission clearly in view, Trinity moves confidently into the future as one of the nation’s leading independent liberal arts colleges.

Academic Programs The Office of the Dean of Faculty and the Vice President for Academic Affairs has administrative responsibilities for Trinity’s academic programs and is dedicated to enriching intellectual life on campus. The dean is committed to support the faculty in their teaching and research and to sustaining the college’s distinctive urban and global engagements. Across disciplines, Trinity’s faculty is recognized nationally and internationally for distinguished scholarly contributions to the academy, and faculty members have earned prestigious awards and highly competitive grants from the top organizations in their fields. Trinity takes great pride in providing both students and faculty with the tools necessary to excel in their particular areas of academic study. Trinity offers its students a broad choice of 41 majors in the liberal arts and sciences, including an option to design an individualized course of study. Trinity is also among the few selective liberal arts colleges that offer an ABET-accredited engineering program. About 15 percent of students pursue a double major and an additional 25 percent major in an interdisciplinary field, such as neuroscience,

environmental science, international studies, human rights, urban studies, or public policy and law. In addition to a major, students may choose from 26 interdisciplinary minors to add a special focus to their chosen studies. Trinity’s 9:1 student faculty ratio ensures in-person access to faculty who are committed to individualized collaboration with students on real-world research projects. Trinity’s commitment to urban-global education is groundbreaking. The Center for Urban and Global Studies (CUGS) plays a central role in advancing Trinity’s strategic mission of integrated urban and global education. Officially inaugurated in October 2007 through a major grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the center is the first of its kind at a top liberal arts college in the United States. The result of extensive discussion, planning, and self-study among Trinity’s board of trustees, senior leadership, faculty committees, and students, it constitutes one of Trinity’s top strategic priorities and reflects a broad consensus for achieving an integrated urban- global studies mission. At the core of this mission lies Trinity’s unique links between academic programs on campus, experiential and service learning in the city of Hartford and extended educational opportunities focused in cities around the world.

Study Away Study away is an integral part of the Trinity experience. A critical component of Trinity’s urban/global focus, study abroad offers immersive living and learning experiences in some of the world’s great cities. The Office of International Programs maintains nine Trinity international sites and more than 90 approved international and domestic programs. Students are encouraged to take advantage of a summer, semester, or full-year study-away program, and more than 50 percent of Trinity undergraduates study abroad or in another U.S. city before graduating.

Internships Each year, close to 300 Trinity students earn credit by combining work experience with academic components under the direction of a Trinity professor. More than 200 established placements are offered and others can be arranged in virtually any professional area, the arts, business and finance, government, engineering, health and social services, law, media and education. Trinity students benefit from the college’s capital city location as many of the internships made available to them can only occur in a capital city.

Student Life Trinity is committed to being a culturally and ethnically diverse campus community. Students are actively engaged outside the classroom, participating in numerous volunteer and service learning activities as well as in a wide variety of campus organizations and sports. Student clubs are a huge part of the Trinity experience. There are more than 100 student-run organizations representing the full spectrum of student life at the college. Clubs are categorized by community service organizations, cultural organizations, special interest groups, club sports and recreation, media organizations, musical organizations and student government. There are twelve cultural and student-organized theme houses, each sponsoring guest speakers, parties, concerts, service projects, and shared meals. In addition, all students

are invited to worship through campus religious and spiritual events like weekly Muslim Community Prayers, Shabbat Dinner, Chapel, non-denominational Banquet Chapel services, Trinity Zen, Roman Catholic Mass, and others. About 22 percent of the student body is affiliated with a fraternity or sorority on campus. Students benefit greatly from the recently completed renovation of the Vernon Social building and have access to the Cinestudio, a movie theater located in the heart of campus that replicates a 1930s film house. Through the college’s Office of Community Service and Civic Engagement, students may build strong, sustainable partnerships with the Hartford community and strengthen service, community commitment, and civic responsibility as central to Trinity’s institutional mission, as well as to the experience of each member of the Trinity College community. More than 40 percent of Trinity’s undergraduates compete in intercollegiate varsity or club sports. The college offers an indoor athletic facility that houses a swimming pool, fitness centers, basketball courts, crew tanks, international-size squash courts, tennis courts and a 400- meter track. Exterior fields include more than 19 acres of playing surfaces for football, baseball, softball, soccer, rugby, field hockey, tennis courts and field events. The Arts Students are actively engaged in the arts on the Trinity campus. Studio art facilities for painting, sculpture, drawing, photography, and printmaking are available as are four theater and dance studios and a performance lab equipped for small-scale productions. In addition, the Austin Arts Center is home to a 315-seat proscenium-style theater and a “black box” performance space. The campus also boasts two art galleries: Widener Gallery and Broad Street Gallery. In addition, The Mill is a student-run theme house dedicated to arts and performance. Alumni Trinity College alumni, 25,000 strong, are fiercely loyal to Trinity and proud of who they became because of it. They are physicists and playwrights, inventors and investors, artists and athletes, economists and educators, activists and advocates, policymakers and philanthropists. They are highly engaged alumni who often maintain lifelong bonds with their classmates and their professors, and they are active volunteers in supporting their alma mater and helping today’s Bantams succeed in the world.

Finances Trinity College operates from a solid financial foundation. The annual operating budget is $139 million. As of June 30, 2017, the College had more than $900 million in assets, including a $577 million endowment.

About Hartford, Connecticut

Located just two hours from Boston and New York City, Hartford is a historic New England city that is one of the region’s most important cultural and business centers. At the turn of the 20th century, Hartford was the insurance capital of America and one of the wealthiest cities in the country. The insurance giants’ iconic headquarters are still cornerstones of the Hartford skyline, and stately 19th-century mansions still line the streets of Asylum Hill. The city of Hartford is composed of 16 smaller neighborhoods, each with its own attractions and vibe. Almost 400 years old, Hartford is among the oldest cities in the United States. Following the American Civil War, Hartford was the wealthiest city in the United States for several decades. In 1868, resident Mark Twain wrote before he died, “Of all the beautiful towns it has been my fortune to see this is the chief.” Like other New England cities, Hartford suffered from urban flight in the 1960s and 1970s. In the past decade, Hartford has experienced a significant economic and cultural renaissance. In 2005, the city completed the Connecticut Convention Center, a sweeping glass and steel structure along Hartford’s renovated riverfront. The Connecticut Science Center opened its doors in 2009, and the brand-new Hartford 21 luxury apartment tower is the tallest residential building in New England. Hartford is home to the nation’s oldest public art museum, the Wadsworth Atheneum; the oldest public park, Bushnell Park; the oldest continuously published newspaper, The Hartford Courant; the second-oldest secondary school, Hartford Public; the XL Center; and the Mark Twain House where the author wrote his most famous works and raised his family, among other historically significant attractions. Trinity’s location in Connecticut’s capital city of Hartford provides students with an abundance of opportunities for learning, for career exploration, and for cultural growth. Trinity has played an important role in the city’s revitalization. In 1996, the college spearheaded a pioneering public- private partnership with Hartford Public Schools to build the Learning Corridor across the street from the college. The 16-acre Learning Corridor campus comprises Montessori and magnet schools spanning pre-K through high school. With the expansion of the Hartford Magnet Middle School (HMMS) to create the Hartford Magnet Trinity College Academy (HMTCA), Trinity has reaffirmed its educational commitment to the youth of Hartford.
