Then & Now: Bimal Shahi '25
An international student from Nepal, Bimal was one of three first-year students who documented their experiences as they became Davidson students.
Journey to Davidson. Bimal loved how the campus looked in photos, how safe it seemed, and was particularly impressed by the honor code—“honesty is something I really value.”
One year later. "I've grown a lot as an individual here. Living in a small community, with respectful people, that really helped me. It's given me the opportunity to learn so many new things."
