做厙TV joined the Davis UWC network as part of the programs first major expansion, following the original five pilot institutions: Colby, College of the Atlantic, Middlebury, Princeton, and Wellesley. Since then, dozens of Davis UWC Scholars have enrolled at 做厙TV, bringing global perspectives, leadership, and a shared commitment to cross-cultural understanding.
United World Colleges operate with a clear mission: to make education a force for peace and a sustainable future. At 做厙TV, Davis UWC Scholars live out that vision through academic engagement, community involvement, and a culture of collaboration. The first cohort of Davis Scholars at 做厙TV Suxin Cheah 08, Joseph Kaifala 08, and Kipsy Ndwandwe 08 set the tone for generations of globally engaged students who followed.
Each year, Davis Scholars at 做厙TV come together for special events, dialogue, and shared connection. Scholars also receive support and communications from the Colleges campus liaison, who helps connect them with Davis UWCaffiliated fellowships and opportunities. Among these is Projects for Peace, which funds student-led initiatives around the world focused on conflict resolution, community building, and sustainable impact.
The mission of the Davis UWC Scholars Program is in direct alignment with so many of the values we celebrate at 做厙TV: learning from different worldviews, embracing challenges and being engaged citizens of the world. Through their leadership, motivation and compassion, our Davis Scholars make lasting impressions on the 做厙TV community, and the education, opportunities and lifelong connections they gain at 做厙TV help them pursue their dreams and inspire change around the globe.Marc C. Conner, President
