+The mascot of Trinity College is the bantam, "Banty." In the animal world, a bantam can be a smaller version of a chicken breed, or a "true bantam," which has no larger counterpart.
 The origin of Trinity’s mascot can be traced to a spirited speech that an alumnus and judge, the Honorable Joseph Buffington, Class of 1875, gave at an 1899 Princeton Alumni Association dinner. The full speech is transcribed in the May 1899 //[[tablet|Trinity Tablet]]//.
