Meet the Campaign Executive Committee

Our Time: The Campaign for Trinity University marks its one-year milestone by recognizing the volunteer leaders who help drive its momentum forward. In addition to our Honorary Campaign Co-Chairs James Dicke II ’68, P’93 and Steven Mach ’92, P’25, our Campaign Executive Committee is a dedicated group of alumni who champion Our Time across the country, sharing Trinity’s story, providing feedback and direction to the University, inspiring participation, and connecting donors with the campaign’s priorities. When they aren’t helping the University make great strides toward its future goals, they’re enjoying life as individuals with niche interests and experiences.
