About
The Coates Student Center (CSC) is one of the hubs of campus life at Trinity and the place to be for students on campus. It was designed as a modernist structure that used the lift-slab method and featured windows and terraces designed to survey sweeping views of downtown.
The Coates Student Center (CSC) directly supports Trinity’s mission to serve as a transformational liberal arts and sciences university by facilitating meaningful discovery for students, faculty, and staff in a comfortable and engaging environment.
