#DAVIDSONTRUE

Truth is an elusive concept these days­—but not at Davidson. For us, truth is not a set of answers, it’s a way of being­—defined by deep sincerity, intellectual bravery, unquestioned integrity, fundamental decency. This is the foundation that makes the Davidson experience a true examination of self and world. And why relationships formed here are ties that bind, with impact that is boundless.
