Join Davidson College in Celebrating Random Acts of Kindness Day

February 10, 2025

No one does “kind” better than the Davidson community. We care for, and about, each other and our students – a distinctive quality that our alumni recall and prospective students sense when they visit. 

Event

Random Acts of Kindness Day is February 18

“Kindness is brewing” is the theme of this year’s campus celebration of Random Acts of Kindness Day on February 18. There will be a variety of opportunities to join together and recognize the kindness and humanity that exists around us.

"Davidson fosters honesty and kindness, which create strong and long-lasting bonds between peers and professors. I feel extremely fortunate to be in classes where my professors not only know my name but also recognize my background and identity.”

"I learned at Davidson that when you’re surrounded by passionate people who are committed to making people’s lives better, you become your best self.”
