Parent Appreciation Weekend

March 28 - 29, 2025

Trinity has a robust tradition of active parent volunteers and generous parent donors that help make the University what it is today. 

In gratitude for your generous commitment to supporting Trinity University students, we hope you will join us for a curated weekend designed just for you, our leader donors and Parent Council members.

Our PAW Committee has worked to create a meaningful weekend for you and your Tiger.   We realize that some of you may be in town for PAW, and to celebrate a ring ceremony or a student award.   The schedule has been designed to allow for you to attend these events as well.
