The Davis UWC Scholars at Trinity, among students representative of 47 different countries, exemplify the extraordinary possibilities that are available to undergraduates, inspiring fellow Trinity students to pursue cross-cultural studies as well as deep bonds that transcend international borders. In offering their international perspectives and their courage to familiarize themselves with so many communities, Davis UWC Scholars foster more expansive dialogues in and out of our classrooms, enlarging the scope of thinking among entering students from the moment they begin their studies.
