With the launch of Trinity’s chapter of Spoon University right around the corner, we figured we would introduce you to the lovely ladies behind the launch (L to R): Anna Brennan ’18, Carly Goroff ’17, and Lizzie Snyder ’17. Spoon University connects campuses across the globe with students, highlighting cool things about food that you didn’t know about.
