| About this School |
| Davidson College is a private liberal arts college for 1,700 students in Davidson, North Carolina. Bobby Vagt '69 is its president. The College was established by Presbyterians in 1837, though as recently as 2005 it has adjusted and rearticulated its now largely nominal religious affiliation. According to its Board of Trustees, the College "values the life of the spirit and fosters openness to and respect for the world's various faith traditions." Majors are offered in over twenty fields, as are several minors and self-designed interdisciplinary options. The college has graduated 23 Rhodes Scholars and is consistently ranked in the top ten liberal arts colleges in the country by U.S. News and World Report magazine.
