Through the Greater Good Award, Trinity recognizes a rising Sophomore, Junior or Senior who exemplifies the university’s ideal of faith lived through service to others. For more than a century, Trinity’s mission, grounded in the Catholic tradition of social justice, has sought to educate students with a commitment to use their Trinity education in service to the most acute needs of the community, to demonstrate love of neighbor through service as a manifestation of serving God. The recipient of the Greater Good Award will be a student in good standing who has consistently demonstrated excellence and leadership in faith and service through engagement with a broad range of community service and social justice activities, including programs sponsored by Campus Ministry, Student Affairs and Academic Affairs. The recipient may be from any class year, with preference given to a student who has a track record of social justice engagement over several years of service. This award is presented at the annual Sower's Seed Lecture.
