"When applying to colleges, I had no idea where I wanted to go. Davidson was the first place that made me feel like I was more than just a statistic. I participated in the spring fly-in program my senior year, during which I was flown out to tour the campus and meet students. I remember standing in front of Chambers and looking around, feeling like I could see myself here. If it weren't for that program, I don't think I would have had the opportunity to see Davidson for what it really is: a place of community, growth, and challenges. While I am in my final year at Davidson, I will always look back and know I made the right decision. I will forever be grateful for the opportunities that Davidson gave me from the day I visited campus and beyond. I found my second home at Davidson."
Favorite Class
My favorite class at Davidson has been Debate and Deliberation through the communications department, where we tackled heavy topics and engaged in dialogue around these issues. It was what ultimately helped me decide on my communications major.
Fun Fact
