Angola Main Street and Trine University are hosting the second annual Trine Fest on Thursday, Aug. 24, in downtown Angola.
Community members are invited to join Trine students from 5-8:30 p.m. for family-friendly events around the Mound, including food trucks, inflatables, carnival games, balloon and caricature artists, and live music.
“Trine Fest is a remarkable opportunity for the Trine campus to join with the wider community of Angola,” said Mackenzie Bird, community coordinator for the City of Angola. “With food vendors, activities and participation from local businesses and organizations, this will be an exciting downtown event you won't want to miss! We are excited to witness the convergence of students, faculty, families and residents as we create memories and strengthen the bonds that make Angola such a special place.”
The event is one of many on and off the Trine University campus welcoming students back for the fall semester. Classes begin at Trine on Aug. 21.
Young Professionals of DeKalb County (YPDC) is expanding professional development options for its members by partnering with Trine University to offer unique learning opportunities.
Trine University students Isaac Braun, a senior chemical engineering major from Portland, Indiana, and Ryan Sederstrom, a junior electrical engineering major from Cedar Lake, Indiana, placed 15th in the collegiate pairs tournament at the North American Bridge Championships.
Trine University has been selected to be part of a national program to help campuses respond to the challenges and opportunities artificial intelligence (AI) presents for courses, curricula and higher education in general.
