Explore Learning Beyond the Classroom

"I learned to approach the world with curiosity and to always dig deeper for the root causes of a problem before jumping towards solutions. The experiences, knowledge, and research capabilities that I gained at Davidson have become an essential part of my personal and professional character, and have enriched me not only as an employee, but as a human."

Find Your Team

"Davidson fosters honesty and kindness, which create strong and long-lasting bonds between peers and professors. I feel extremely fortunate to be in classes where my professors not only know my name but also recognize my background and identity.”

Thrive in a Distinctively Supportive Community

“A small community of support is exactly what I needed. Davidson made it clear they were willing to do anything to get me here. We still have a lot to advocate for, but so many people before me paved the way for me to feel this kind of support on campus.”

Prepare for a Life of Leadership & Service

"When I graduate from Davidson, I know I will carry with me the lesson that doing the right thing, leaning into my values, and relying on my community for support when challenges arise, is always better than taking the easier or more convenient path."
