[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Surprised how much we liked Davidson. We were in Charlotte for a wedding and took an extra day to tour the campus.

The tour guides were wonderful - we had two. Down to earth, knowledgeable, and really personal and open with details about their experiences there.

DS isn’t overly focused on SLACs - he just wants solid academics with strong school spirit and lots of other sporty kids who are interested in club and intramural sports.

Davidson seemed to fit that perfectly. Not nearly as “quirky” as we expected (sorry for the SLAC stereotype) and the whole vibe felt more down to earth than the other private schools we’ve toured (no excessively renovated buildings or silly extras that make us feel like they’re wasting money on superficial things.)

People seemed happy and we noticed that the groups of kids hanging out at the student center and in the library weren’t all homogenous. Kids had so many different looks/styles, which felt different than Wake Forest, for example, and weren’t segregated by type.

Curious what others experienced when visiting Davidson, or even better, what your kids are experiencing if they’re current students there. [/quote]
