Demobilized from active duty, he returned to Yale University, graduating in 1921. While at Yale, he was a member of St. Anthony Hall and of the Skull and Bones society. Trippe was treasurer at the first-ever meet of the National Intercollegiate Flying Association in 1920.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://nifa.us/SAFECON%20Programs/1920%20program.pdf )〕
