Trinity Washington University Looks to Reduce Student Debt, Help Diversify Future Workforces

The goal is to get Trinity students to graduate with a lot less debt, put them onto career paths that lead to higher-paying jobs and, eventually, land them in C-suites. To that end, Trinity is looking to raise $10 million in the next three years from companies, wealthy individuals and philanthropic nonprofits. That money will go toward cutting the student debt for juniors and seniors, which stands at an average of $30,000, in half by 2025.
