Over the summer, Trinity Students completed three 和平项目. Daniel Santos Ramírez ’23 and Gabriel Sorondo Guirola ’23 completed their project “Proyecto Turpial: Diasporic Youth Encounters,” which focused on building connections between young Venezuelans abroad and helping them to network with the eventual goal of empowering young leaders to give back to Venezuela. Suzanne Carpe Elias ’22 and Federico Cedolini ’22 completed the project “Mental Health Training for Peace: Building an Online Platform to Educate Families of Mental Health Patients in El Salvador,” where the goal was to help educate families with members who are suffering from mental health issues how to better help support their loved ones.

As we are going through the inaugural self-study and external review of 城市研究 this spring to mark its first decade of development since 2013, we feature two earlier graduates who reflect on their self-designed Urban & Global Studies major in 2011 and its curricular connections to their post-graduation careers. Their experience with that major had helped launch the current 城市研究 Major into existence a decade ago.
“B-Girls run the world” says Adyanna Odom ‘23, who studied the culture of breakdancing women (B-Girls) in Houston over the summer with a grant from the 城市与全球研究中心. Through her coursework as an International Studies major with a concentration in Global Hip Hop, Odom discovered a gap in the literature about B-Girls. She wants to add to the academic literature on B-Girls by sharing their voices in circles that have not been open to them before.
援助en Chisholm ’23 knew he wanted to apply for a 城市与全球研究中心 (CUGS) 研究 grant during his junior year – it was a matter of finding the right 研究 project. After spending time considering a question to explore, a topic that combined his academic interests in Spanish and Arabic became apparent during his semester abroad in Granada, 西班牙.

Combining and integrating the local and global has been a foundational and sustained central theme of the 城市研究 program since its launch in 2013. This has manifested itself through classroom learning, 研究, 课外活动, and post-graduation careers in both the 哈特福德 region and far-flung global cities.
As we have left spring behind and settled into summer, we have sent off another cohort of 20-plus graduates in 城市研究. While this adds to the total number of more than 170 urban studies majors who have already left Trinity over the past decade, it does not mean a one-way departure for some of them.
