[quote=Anonymous]Like a number of other Southern schools Davidson's following in the footsteps of Duke, Vanderbilt and Emory in making a big marketing push in the DC area. (Wake Forest and Sewanee are other schools looking north for applicants). Davidson is very small and tucked away, more conservative socially and politicallly than New England SLACs, but very solid academically. Davidson has always been a preppy place (the Southern version of preppy), but like SLACs in New England and the Midwest, it can be attractive to an intellectually curious kid who wants 4 years to explore his/her passions in an academic village. As it draws more kids from the Mid-Atlantic region, the school is becoming more diverse, more culturally liberal and stronger academically. Oh, and Davidson has a little curve-ball that boosts its appeal to some students-- it's a D1 school with some very legit teams. Definitely a comer. [/quote]
