Alumni Trident Project
Become Part of Merced College History
The Alumni Trident Project is a lasting tribute to the students, alumni, faculty, staff, and supporters who make Merced College special. Through commemorative plaques and giving opportunities, alumni and friends of the college can become a permanent part of campus history while supporting future generations of Blue Devils.
At the center of the project will stand a custom 7-foot trident sculpture — a bold symbol of Blue Devil pride, tradition, and community. Designed as a long-term campus landmark, the monument will serve as a gathering place and recognizable feature for students, alumni, and visitors for years to come.
Whether you are honoring your own journey, celebrating a loved one, recognizing a mentor, or paying tribute to a graduating class, a personalized plaque is a meaningful way to leave your mark on Merced College.
