What is CTW?
The acronym CTW stands for three schools that you can easily borrow books and other material from. C for Connecticut College, T for Trinity College and W for Wesleyan University. As a Trinity College student you have the same borrowing privileges at Connecticut College and Wesleyan University as you have here at Trinity. You can even go to their libraries and borrow materials using your Trinity College ID Card.
