There is a stereotype that all we do is study in the library. Although that definitely applies to some Davidson students, I think most students have quite balanced social and acadmic lives.

Erin

I feel like Davidson kids are stereotyped as being rich, white, boarding school kids. There are definitely those kids here, but I don't necessarily think that they control the entire student population. We also have a reputation for having hard academics and no social scene. While the classes are hard, and learning to manage your time is a must, it's nothing that can't be handled. And because of the difficult classes, people are always looking to let loose and have some fun on the weekends. I feel like we have a great social scene here.
