"Why Davidson? The community. I first encountered the Davidson community when I came to visit during Admitted Students Day. While there, I had a conversation with three people that made me realize the impact of the Davidson community on campus culture. Those three people were: the former chair of the Political Science department, a current senior in the Class of 2023, and a recent alum from the Class of 2019. All three of these people knew each other, they all had great things to say about each other, and they all could not stop saying great things about Davidson. It was a completely unexpected and random interaction that made me realize Davidson was the place and community made for me."
Favorite Class
ENG 309: The Unreliable Narrator in News because it was a class that incorporated journalism, communications, history, and politics (my favorite part of a liberal arts education).
Fun Fact
I went to the same high school as Coach McKillop, meaning I am one person away from meeting Stephen Curry.
