Alumni and Families

Established in 2021, the mission of the Latinx Alumni Network at Davidson (LAND) is to provide a member-focused group dedicated to providing community-building, support, advocacy, visibility and programming for Latinx alumni at Davidson. 

The Latinx Alumni Network at Davidson seeks to build an inclusive campus and community culture by serving as a bridge between Latinx students, alumni, faculty, staff, and the broader college community both on and off campus. Objectives include:

  • Facilitating community-building, mentoring and professional development opportunities among  Latinx students and alumni
  • Advocating for a safe and inclusive college community for Latinx students on-campus by supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives
  • Engaging in dialogue around Latinx-community and culture, identity, and race at Davidson College and beyond
  • Sharing information about opportunities for Latinx alumni to get involved in college volunteer and service opportunities
  • Collaborating with constituents and partner organizations at Davidson

Spotlight on Programming

In May, LAND gathered to celebrate the class of 2026 with it's annual LAND Senior Celebration. This celebration proudly honors the achievements and diverse identities of Davidson students while celebrating the communities that have shaped their journeys. This gathering serves as a bridge connecting graduating seniors with the dynamic Davidson alumni community and warmly welcoming them into LAND. During the ceremony each graduating senior is presented with a personalized stole by members of the alumni community.
