In a new episode of the TrineLine podcast, now online, Tony Kline, Ph.D., president of Trine University, discusses the positive
happenings at Trine University this fall semester, the new facilities on campus, the
role of athletics in the student experience and the importance of the relationship
between the university and the Angola community.
Dr. Kline talks about the university’s record incoming class at its Angola campus as well as record overall enrollment at the Brooks College of Health Professions in Fort Wayne. He also shares how the new Thunder Dome, Trine Family Training Center and Pellegrino Student Design Center will help enhance the student experience at Trine.
