Hope is not blind faith that things will get better. It’s a realistic belief that things can get better.
Despair is an illusion of certainty. Hope is an appreciation of possibility.
Change requires a way. There is no way without will. There is no will without hope.

The strength of community at Davidson College inspired one alum to capture the joy she felt in a work of art. That piece now graces the walls of the E.H. Little Library, thanks to alum Eliz Kirkland Sickles '88. davidson.edu/news/2023/09/28…

September 27th is E.H. Little Day! Thanks to Mr. Little for his very generous donations to establish a new library on the Davidson campus. The dedication was on September 27, 1974.

🍁 Fall is here! 🍂 We wanted to celebrate the coming weather by looking at the past! Here is a photo from the 1980s showcasing our beautiful yellow and orange trees. Who’s ready for our campus to look like this again?
