BARBARA FISCHER MCQUEENEY '78
I felt that in the '70s it was one of the best schools to be a female student-athlete.
I have many, but road trips with the tennis team, the juke box in Psi U's basement, how easy it was to meet one-on-one with a professor and countless moments with great friends just enjoying the moment.
I was pretty shy in college and did not seek out professors, as much as I wish I had. I would say, my advisor, Borden Painter. I chose him because he was very fair and approachable.
I learned to appreciate art through several art history classes. But more importantly, I learned how to be a better friend.
Lifelong friends, watching Trinity squash and field hockey matches, being an alumni ambassador, visiting my goddaughter and the publications.
It was Hemingway's "Old Man and the Sea." The summer after my senior year I took it upon myself to read everything Hemingway ever wrote because of the introduction to him in this class.
Trinity is part of who I am today. I feel fortunate to have gone to a college that was a good fit for me academically and athletically. It is a way for me to "give back" and to ensure that Trinity will be there for future generations.
