“I’m trying to stimulate leaders of the future to make a difference through the grounding in education that I’m helping to give them. When I started my business career, I took my own history

lesson from Princeton: I learned how leaders make a difference, in their countries, in their centuries. So I invested in leaders, and that investment helped me to be successful. …I’m looking

to invest again in leaders of the future.”

SHELBY M.C . DAVISCo-founder and Philanthropist

“We strive to build critical masses of globally minded young men and women on American campuses, to foster highly personal relationships between outstanding

Americans and non-Americans, and to seed global networks. These networks can serve a higher calling of international understanding and common purpose among

future leaders in all walks of life in our world.”

How Other Philanthropists Can Invest

Philanthropists who want to help bring the world to U.S. campuses — especially their own alma mater — are invited to become a part of the Davis UWC

Scholars Program. Philanthropist Shelby Davis created the program 12 years ago and, since then, it has grown to become the world’s largest international scholarship program for undergraduate study. Over 90 American colleges and universities have been selected to partner with this major philanthropic investment to transform American campuses by providing scholarships to students from more than 140 countries to attend these schools for their undergraduate degrees. The scholarships are awarded to students who are proven “winners.” As 15- or 16-year-olds, they won national competitions in their home countries that allowed them to complete their last two years of high school at one of the premier United World College schools. They have demonstrated their leadership, they are informed and engaged in world issues, and they have been admitted to some of the finest institutions of higher learning in the U.S. Everyone at these campuses — students, faculty, staff, and the surrounding community — benefits from this exposure and the global networking that will inevitably link our country’s future leaders with those of many other nationalities. The Davis UWC Scholars Program is a genuine partnership — Davis philanthropy provides $10,000 or $20,000 per scholar per year of need-based aid for up to four years to each of the partner schools. Schools with 40 or more scholars enrolled on a continuing basis receive the larger award because they have demonstrated their complete strategic commitment by hosting such a large cohort. The partner schools are left to fund the remaining financial aid for each scholar. Depending on the student’s demonstrated need and on each partner school’s full fees, the remaining scholarship packages can be quite substantial. Other philanthropists have already chosen to participate. They have invested in a proven and exciting global program by co-funding a portion of these scholars at their alma mater or at other partner schools of particular interest to them. This opportunity exists for you as well. Share a naming opportunity for a scholar and his/her four-year undergraduate degree with a commitment of $10,000 or $20,000 a year. Your philanthropy, in concert with Davis philanthropy and your favorite school, will help create a three-way partnership for a better world.

The Davis United World College Scholars ProgramBy Philip O. Geier, Ph.D., Executive Director

T he 21st century has brought a changed and ever-

changing global landscape. Greater challenges, threats,

and uncertainties haunt humanity. There are no clear or easy

solutions. The pace is quickening. Information is abundant and

readily accessible, yet knowledge and true wisdom seem elusive.

It is in this context that the Davis United World College (UWC)

Scholars Program invests extensively and with confidence in the

promise and future possibilities of selected scholars from around

the world and their education at partner colleges and universities

across the United States.

Co-founded in 2000 by philanthropist Shelby Davis and

veteran international educator Phil Geier, the Davis UWC

Scholars Program has grown to become the world’s largest

international scholarship program for undergraduates. Its strategic objective is to advance

international understanding through education. The program is built on two assumptions:

one, that promising future leaders from a broad range of cultures should be afforded greater

educational opportunities and serve to accelerate global networking; two, that these educational

opportunities take place at leading U.S. colleges and universities, in the belief that these American

schools will become more effective learning communities for all their students by becoming more

internationally diverse and globally engaged.

U N I T I N G T H E W O R L D

6 Uniting the World 7Davis United World College Scholars Program

Through the philanthropy of Shelby and Gale Davis, this program awards grants to partner

schools for American and foreign scholars who have proven themselves by successfully completing

their final two years of high school at a group of international schools called United World Colleges

which teach to the International Baccalaureate Diploma. These UWC schools are located in the

United States, Bosnia, Canada, Costa Rica, Hong Kong, India, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway,

Singapore, Swaziland, the United Kingdom, and Venezuela.

Since their founding in 1962 at the height of the Cold War, these UWC schools have provided

educational opportunities to outstanding students from 175 countries, representing all regions

of the world. Students are selected in their home countries by indigenous, voluntary committees

charged to find the most promising teenagers eager to pursue their further education and leadership

and cross-cultural skills in a global context.

Under the leadership of former UWC-USA president Phil Geier, the program now supports

nearly 2,500 scholars on over 90 American campuses. Headquartered at Middlebury College,

the program partners with these U.S. schools to meet the financial needs of these selected scholars

throughout their four-year undergraduate degree programs.

The program has five principal goals:

» Provide scholarship support for exemplary and promising students from all cultures, who have absorbed the passion and mission of their UWC schools for building international understanding;

» Build meaningful clusters of these globally aware scholars within the undergraduate populations of selected partner colleges and universities across the U.S.;

» Help transform the American undergraduate experience through international diversity and intercultural exchange — as much for the large majority of traditional American students as for the scholars;

» Leverage the value of this philanthropic initiative — to the long-term benefit of all learners and their teachers, to contribute to strategic shifts in institutional thinking, and to bring greater resources to the effort;

» Contribute proactively to the well-being of our volatile, highly interdependent world by expecting our scholars and those with whom they interact to take personal responsibility for helping shape a better world.

The Davis UWC Scholars Program is at once practical and aspirational. It reflects the huge

potential of private philanthropy to promote international understanding in dynamic, expanding

ways through educational institutions that share its strategic vision and are committed to bringing

greater opportunities for global engagement to all their students. In essence, the program

is about using philanthropic leadership to leverage additional support for transformative impact

on individuals, institutions, and the wider world.

As of 2012, there are 94 U.S. colleges and universities in

partnership with the Davis United World College Scholars

Program. For partner schools, the program provides

annual grants in support of need-based scholarships for

each matriculated UWC graduate for up to four years of

undergraduate study. The total number of Davis UWC

Scholars at all these partner colleges and universities

has now reached 2,451 from 146 countries. The 2012

graduating class includes 575 students from 119 nations.

To date, the program has supported 4,230 scholars.

3

Since 1962, thousands of young people from 175 nations

have been selected by committees in their home countries

to complete their last two years of high school at one of

13 United World College schools. UWC schools are in the

United States, Canada, Bosnia, Costa Rica, Hong Kong,

India, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Singapore, Swaziland,

the United Kingdom, and Venezuela. The UWC movement

works to build multinational, cross-cultural communication

and understanding among all its students.

1

In 2000, the Davis United World College Scholars Program

began providing scholarship grants to a pilot group of

American colleges and universities to support United World

College graduates who matriculated at these schools.

These pilot schools — Colby College, College of the Atlantic,

Middlebury College, Princeton University, and Wellesley

College — are graduating their ninth class of Davis United

World College Scholars in 2012. Based on the success of

building clusters of globally minded scholars at these pilot

schools, Davis philanthropy chose to greatly expand the

number of campuses and scholars in the program.

2

With their education made possible through their own

merits and the help of the Davis United World College

Scholars Program and its partner schools, Davis UWC

Scholars will go on to play important, meaningful, often

leadership roles in their communities, in their home

countries, and in the world. And the partner schools

will have become more globally engaged and more

internationally diverse educational communities.

Davis UWC Scholars by Class Year*

*As of 10/31/11


Brown University Wins Davis Cup for Most First-Year Scholars

Every fall, for the past 12 years, the Davis Cup has been awarded to the

college or university with the highest number of matriculated first-year

Davis UWC Scholars. This academic year the cup was awarded, for the

second time, to Brown University, whose 41 incoming Davis UWC

Scholars were the second-most to enter one school in the program’s history

(44 scholars started at Earlham College in 2010).

“We are extremely proud of our partnership with the Davis UWC

Scholars Program,” said Brown President Ruth J. Simmons when she

accepted the cup last December in a ceremony with executive director and

co-founder Phil Geier and Brown’s many Davis UWC Scholars.

The effects of the Davis philanthropy are “truly incalculable,”

President Simmons said, as Davis UWC Scholars continue to make an

impact on more than 90 campuses across the United States, and graduates

of the program apply their talents to a variety of professions.

“I can speak to the ways in which Davis UWC Scholars contribute to

academic and social life on College Hill,” she continued. “The knowledge

and curiosity that Davis UWC Scholars bring with them to campus help to

promote a broader dialogue, and open up additional pathways to

understanding in a number of disciplines. The resulting cultural and

academic exchanges are extremely valuable in preparing tomorrow’s leaders

for the opportunities and challenges of an increasingly global marketplace.

“I think it is also crucial for students from a variety of backgrounds to

discover how much they have in common with their peers from other

countries. These similarities are not always examined as fully as our

differences, but a strong appreciation for them can bring about significant

and positive change in the way we view our world.”

Philanthropists Shelby and Gale Davis engage with their scholars on campuses throughout the U.S. and around the world. Top left: Colorado College; top right: Wellesley College; middle: University of Richmond; bottom left: University of Florida; bottom right: Wellesley College.

Making Philanthropy Come Alive“Very Good for the Soul”

by Shelby M.C. Davis

From the co-founder of the Davis United World College Program, whose generosity makes the program possible, this message is adapted from a talk Shelby Davis gave to his 1958 Princeton classmates in 2011.

They say philanthropy, like chicken soup, is good for the soul. But can it

also keep you young at heart?

Through my involvement with the Davis UWC Scholars Program,

I have discovered that the answer is a very real “yes.”

The story of our work together began back in 1997. I was about 60

then, and was retiring from a career in the investment field. Years before,

my parents had instilled in me the idea that the first third of our lives should

be devoted to learning, the second to earning, and the final third to returning. I wanted to devote

my “return” phase to a form of philanthropy that would be really meaningful — that might truly

make a difference.

In the spirit of entrepreneurship, I wanted to find a need and fill it. All I needed was that big idea!

In my business career, searching for the best companies to invest in, I had focused on finding the

most promising leaders. That was key to our success. Now I was seeking a new focus, but I retained

these same guiding values.

Doing my research, I saw that the globalization of our world was a major trend, a lasting one

that would hugely impact our educational needs. I learned that only three percent of undergraduates

at U.S. colleges and universities were international, while 30-45 percent of students at our graduate

schools had come from other nations. I thought about the motto of Princeton, my alma mater: “In

the nation’s service and in the service of all nations.” As we approached the new millennium, I knew

colleges across the U.S. would be pressed to change — to become more international, more globally

oriented.

I was seeing a need. But how to fill it?

Transformational philanthropists Gale and Shelby Davis


Building Leaders with a Global VisionAbout this same time, luck stepped in. I visited a school in New Mexico

called the United World College of the USA. As the guest of its excellent

then-president, Dr. Philip O. Geier, I learned that UWC-USA belonged

to a family of similar two-year schools around the world — that its

International Baccalaureate program of study was intense and electric,

its students were international, and its program united cultures, religions,

and races in respect for difference and zeal for engagement.

I was blown away by the idealism, energy, and motivation I found at the UWC. I learned

about the history of the UWC movement, which began in the chilliest years of the Cold War. I

read a letter from one student’s mother, who spoke of a holiday break where “the students all

gathered around my kitchen table: a girl from Palestine, a boy from Israel, a boy from Yemen.” I

saw that this school was building leaders: young people with global vision, and with a passion for

building bridges.

I spoke about what I had learned with other leaders in international business, and at Princeton

— and then I had a breakthrough idea. I would fund scholarships for any UWC graduate who

could win admission, on his or her own merit, to one of five American colleges and universities.

In 2000, when Dr. Geier and I co-created the Davis United World College Scholars Program,

we had 43 DUWC Scholars from 31 countries. Today we have 2,451 scholars from 146 nations,

and we’re working with 94 partner colleges and universities across the United States. Ours has

become the world’s largest privately funded international scholarship program — and I am once

again investing in leaders, in people I know will make a difference.

Our program works, first, because of the incredibly high quality of the Davis UWC Scholars

themselves, and because everyone involved has positive motivation. In over 130 nations around the

world, UWC selection committees invest their scholarships in the young people they select as their

country’s most promising applicants. Those stipends enable the chosen students to attend UWC

schools, which invest their resources, ideals, and energies in them and

want them to succeed.

When UWC students apply to our member colleges, those U.S.

institutions retain full control of their admission and financial-aid

process. They, too, invest in our scholars. Our program only meets up

to 40 percent of each Davis UWC Scholar’s financial need, with the host

college or university responsible for meeting the rest.

I myself see no applications, conduct no interviews. My job is to

write checks, with no limit on the number of students in the program.

My one requirement remains the same — that each Davis UWC

Scholar be a UWC graduate who earns admission to a member college

on his or her own merit.

“The World Needs Dreamers Who Do”So what do I get out of all this? I get enormous personal satisfaction and reward.

On my visits to our member colleges and universities, I hear again and again that Davis UWC

Scholars are enriching and internationalizing the learning and teaching experience — not just for

themselves, but for their entire college communities. I’m proud to learn that Davis UWC Scholars

are winning academic honors and service awards, including, as this publication details, Rhodes

Scholarships and recognition by the Clinton Global Initiative.

I’m moved by the letters I receive from our scholars, and by the conversations that Phil Geier

and I have with them on our campus visits. I never fail to be impressed, simply, with them.

I’ve heard it said that “the world needs dreamers, and the world needs doers — but most of all,

the world needs dreamers who do.” These young people are like that. They dream, and they do!

In the process, they energize me. They make philanthropy come alive.

I promise you: getting involved in philanthropy like this can keep you young at heart. It’s good

for the world. And just like chicken soup, it is very, very good for the soul.

The Davis UWC Scholars Program combines the transformational philanthropy of Shelby and Gale Davis

with donations from many others to our partner colleges and universities. Given this financial

partnership, we are pleased to recognize their generous support for today’s scholars and tomorrow’s leaders.

Each partner school was invited to submit the names of those they would like listed in this report along

with the Davises. This first effort at donor recognition only scratches the surface of the many who give to their

alma maters in support of the financial aid awarded to our scholars. We are grateful to those who are

contributing to their schools in this way and look forward to a growing honor roll in the years ahead.

Our inaugural listing is arranged by partner school with the information they provided. It captures the

growing number of philanthropists captivated by the value of supporting our scholars—and theirs—by

investing at their chosen college or university. Some have given to annual funds, indicating their interest in

the Davis UWC Scholars Program. Others have given larger amounts ($10,000 or more) toward their alma

mater’s portion of a scholar’s total financial-aid package and have been assigned scholars, sharing the

naming opportunities with the Davises. A few have given major endowments in support of international

scholarships assigned to Davis UWC Scholars and share naming opportunities with the Davises each year.

At the heart of the Davis UWC Scholars Program is “giving back,” a trait we strive to see manifested over time

in our scholars as they make their way in the world.

Davis UWC Scholar Now a Rhodes Scholar and Honors a UWC Legacy

In the global United World College community, Astrid Stuth (USA, Li Po Chun UWC,

Princeton) has an uncommon distinction: she’s a second-generation UWC graduate.

Her father, Dr. Eckehard Stuth, graduated from the UWC of the Atlantic in 1977 — and it

was attending his 20th reunion that started Astrid on the path that took her to UWC, then

to Princeton, and next fall to Oxford on a Rhodes Scholarship.

“I thought it was cool that my dad had all these friends from around the world,” she

remembered. When she later received a mailing from a UWC, “I made the connection. And I got excited.” Astrid was

a second-year student at the Hong Kong UWC when she and a fellow American student, Michael Schoenleber, had an

ambitious idea: they would organize a peace conference, in the Middle East, for American and Iraqi students. The next year

they brought 16 American and 16 Iraqi teenagers together in Amman, Jordan, for a 10-day gathering they called the Youth

Initiative for Peace in Iraq.

Astrid went on to focus on East Asian studies at Princeton, with two summers of service teaching English to ethnic-

minority students in far western China, then a year set aside for intensive Chinese language study in Beijing, on a Boren

Scholarship from the National Security Education Program. Her Princeton independent study focused on how Western

media coverage of crises in China tends to see those events from a pre-shaped perspective that, she noted, “blinds us to

what’s really going on.”

“Astrid is everything Princeton could want in a student: intellectually adventurous, hardworking and exceptionally

curious, not to mention breathtakingly smart,” observed David Leheny, the Henry Wendt ’55 Professor of East Asian

Studies. “She recognizes that the questions most worth pursuing are the ones that require the hardest work and deepest

commitment.”

Last fall, Astrid was one of 32 Americans selected to receive a Rhodes Scholarship. Looking beyond her graduate work,

she imagines an “ideal aspiration” would be “to help facilitate educational exchange, or some kind of public diplomacy. But

we’ll see what happens.”

Whatever does happen, this scholar’s career has already bridged two continents — and two UWC generations.

UWC Graduates Awarded Projects for Peace GrantsFrom Niger to Nepal, Opening New Paths to Peace

F rom the look on a young girl’s face as she examined new books for her orphanage in Albania to the chance to help

fellow Bosnian Muslim families still devastated by the worst European massacre since World War II, Davis UWC

Scholars who helped lead Davis Projects for Peace in summer 2011 gained a wide range of

personal rewards. And in ways small and large — many of them continuing and sustainable

— they made a difference.

Funded by Kathryn W. Davis, the mother of Davis UWC Scholars Program co-founder

Shelby Davis, Projects for Peace encourages and supports motivated young people in

carrying out their ideas for building peace around the world. All undergraduates at the 94

American colleges and universities in the Davis UWC Scholars Program are invited to design

projects they can implement during the summer. The proposals judged to be the most

promising and achievable each receive $10,000 grants.

Last year, 101 projects led by students from 90 partner schools received funding. Of those, 31 were led all or in part by

Davis UWC Scholars. Here are briefings on six especially notable projects.

Kathryn W. Davis

Bosnia & Herzegovina: Collecting Smiles in SrebrenicaIn Srebrenica, Bosnia, where over 8,000 Muslims were murdered by Serbian Army

units in 1995, Methodist University students Dzenana Dzanic, Amna Causevic, Samra

Mrkovic, and Emina Hodzic (all Bosnia & Herzegovina, UWC Mostar) worked with a

local expert on the genocide to identify 14 families in the countryside still struggling to

recover. The team visited each, to find out what they needed. To some they provided

livestock; to others, tools such as a chainsaw, sewing machine, or greenhouse to start

a business; to still others they donated furniture for devastated homes, or heating fuel

for the winter.

“We are all Bosnians. We are like brothers and sisters,” Dzenana Dzanic said.

“I often think of those families, of what they need and what I have.”

Albania: Lexojme, Enderrojme, ArrijmeAt a home for orphaned children in Lexojme, Albania, Amherst College senior Iris Aliaj

(Albania, UWC of the Atlantic) and American student Kathryn Libby brought 500 new

books to a library that, when they arrived, had just a few shelves of old books covered

thickly in dust. Each evening the two read Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows to

36 children and played games that built literacy and critical thinking. They painted and

furnished the library, added shelves and lighting, negotiated bulk purchases of the 500

new and classic Albanian books, and gave each child a personal, gift-wrapped volume.

Iris said she won’t forget a 14-year-old girl, Sabe, who had once lived under a bridge

and who, helping stock the new shelves, “carefully held and intently looked through each

book. It made me think of all the other orphan children I had not met yet, who have great

passion for learning and a strong will to live.”

Niger: Women and Peanut ProcessingIn one of the poorest

neighborhoods in Niger,

Macalester College senior

Rayanatou Laouali (Niger,

Pearson UWC) worked with a group of local women to organize

and register a peanut-processing cooperative. Families in

Niger normally cook with imported vegetable oil.

The women now divide tools and jobs, buy raw peanuts in

bulk, and house one member at the storage warehouse, bought

by the project, to safeguard it. Each co-op member does her

work at home; proceeds support their families and are also

reinvested in the business. Rayanatou also gave a workshop on

how parents can support their children’s education.

“By giving the parents a very solid business, then the

children can focus on school without having to help,” she said.

Lebanon: Camp RafiqiIn Beirut and Tripoli,

Lebanon, Maysa Mourad

(Lebanon, UWC USA) and

three fellow Wellesley

College students led Camp

Rafiqi — a rarity in Lebanon,

because it was cost-free to

families — that brought

together low-income blind

and sighted children. Children learned math and science, did

camp activities, and even learned to swim.

“This relates to peace because, in Lebanon, students with

disabilities are marginalized,” said Maysa, now a graduate

student at Harvard in international education policy. “Breaking

down the social stigma associated with disability is very

important, and this is something we achieved.”

Afghanistan: Empowering Afghan Women through EmbroideryIn Kabul, Afghanistan, Colby College senior Sulaiman Nasseri

lived under the Taliban regime and saw the nightmarish ways it

treated women. “I wanted to do something for the women of

Afghanistan — especially for my mom,” he said. “I am here

because of her.” Talking with his family, he hatched an idea: his

project would train women from a poor neighborhood to do

professional embroidery, and equip them with simple tools.

The 18 women who now earn income from embroidery

have an average of four children each. The project has enabled

many of their children to attend school “who would otherwise,”

Sulaiman said, “have worked on the dangerous streets of

Kabul as child laborers to find livelihood for their families.”

The three trainers recruited for the project have reported

that its work continues. The women are producing

embroidered clothes, popular among Afghans, and a city shop

is selling them. “Yes, this is a small project,” Sulaiman

summed up. “But what I’m doing here is making a real

difference.”

Nepal: Water Supply: Helping Local People Build Their Own VillageIn their home nation of Nepal, Savant Shrestha (Middlebury,

UWC Norway) and Kumud Ghimire (Brown, Pearson UWC)

brought sand, concrete, pipes, and steel for a new water

system by truck and foot to a western mountain village where

women and children had been trudging two hours each day to

gather water, and villagers had been dying young from water-

borne cholera and diarrhea. Safe water fed by Himalayan

snows now reaches 150 village households and 1,200 people,

with a storage tank to keep the supply through the dry season.

“This project has shown us how we have the ability to make

a change in our own country,” Savant reflected. “It doesn’t

have to come only from the government — each of us can

make change. And thanks to the Kathryn Davis Projects for

Peace, this has been possible.”

Opening Paths for Afghan YouthsAfter graduating from the Fletcher School at Tufts in May 2011, Qiamuddin Amiry,

Colby ’09 (Afghanistan, Li Po Chun UWC) went to work full-time for the Afghan

Scholars Initiative (www.afghanscholars.org), a nonprofit he co-founded at Colby that

helps promising Afghan students gain admission and scholarships to private schools in

the U.S. and abroad. ASI now has 12 students studying in the U.S. and India. Its

mission is to prepare Afghanistan’s future civic leaders.

“My goal is to turn ASI into a premier leadership program for Afghan youth. We

have improved our tutorial program and selection process by engaging new partners in

Afghanistan and the U.S. Last summer, we created a new initiative, ‘Jawan: Fashion on a

Mission,’ which sells scarves from Afghanistan to raise money for ASI. We are determined

to constantly strengthen our model, create new initiatives, and find new partners. Shelby

Davis says ‘Learn, earn, return.’ Well, I am skipping the middle one!”

In Kenya, Helping Abused Children Heal

When Ansally Kuria (Kenya, UWC of the Adriatic, Middlebury College)

did an internship working with a Nairobi nonprofit that strives to prevent

sexual violence and assist survivors, she found herself wanting to do more. The

Gender Violence Recovery Center (GVRC), where she interned, had worked

with more than 2,800 abuse survivors the previous year — 45 percent of them

children, most of them girls. “Sexual violence is a terrible thing to happen to

anyone, irrespective of age,” Ansally wrote. “I feel I must take a step beyond empathy or sympathy, and do something to

help these children heal.”

Back at Middlebury, Ansally developed a project proposal that would brighten, refurbish, and equip with toys the drab

counseling rooms GVRC was using to work with child-abuse survivors. The goal, she wrote, was to “provide a conducive

environment where survivors of violence can really ‘just be kids,’ free to express themselves and, as such, begin their journey to

healing.” She would also bring an awareness-raising education project about sexual violence to several Nairobi grade schools.

To raise money for paint, decorations, and play-therapy materials, Ansally turned to MiddStart, a new Middlebury

College initiative that helps students raise money online for worthy projects. Ansally set a $2,000 goal in posting her

proposal — and in 14 days, 80 people donated $2,070. The college’s Alliance for Civic Engagement gave $1,000 to fund the

school-visit component, and the college president’s office added $1,600.

In Nairobi last summer, Ansally recruited students from three city high schools to help her paint and equip the

counseling spaces in three sites where GVRC works with young abuse survivors. Her visits to three primary schools reached

over 300 children, and her blog kept supporters updated at every stage.

“Ansally made such a great contribution to our work,” wrote Grace Wangechi, GVRC’s executive director, from

Nairobi. “She mobilized other young persons to work with her, and the school activities equipped children with information

on child rights, forms of abuse, and how to play an active role in protecting themselves.

“We are proud,” Wangechi concluded, “that she is a part of us.”

Ansally Kuria, with city high-school students she recruited to help paint the three GVRC counseling spaces.

Opening Swaziland’s Rich History“I teach IB anthropology at Waterford Kamhlaba UWC, Swaziland,” writes Mlungisi Dlamini, Franklin &

Marshall ’11 (Swaziland, Kamhlaba UWC). “My students represent four continents, and study world cultures

in the oldest surviving monarchy in sub-Saharan Africa. They encounter things central to public life — heroic

poetry, ancestral ritual, clan identity, nonmonetary economies — that are rare in the world and sidelined in

most of Africa. Their multicultural perspectives engage on humanity’s prehistorical ancestors, some of whom

left traces that survive in Swazi cultural practice and in the landscape around Waterford.

“The unique history of Swaziland makes it rich for scholarship. I record oral histories, digitize historical

documents, and encourage my students to write on unexplored topics. I am working on my dream of an online portal to Swaziana:

an index of competently reviewed academic and general-interest articles, books, pictures, videos, maps, music, etc.”

Scholarship to study at Oxford University. “I will be pursuing a master of philosophy (MPhil) in

development studies, then hopefully a DPhil in international development,” Matthews writes. “I would

like to study how best to use policy to dismantle and disempower the institutions underpinning poverty

and inequity in African nations, and to build new structures that will better serve the needs of

vulnerable communities on the continent. My M.Phil. work will examine the role of gender in shaping

the opportunities available to individuals, in order to examine how African societies can close gender

gaps in economic opportunity, political participation, and access to health care and education.”

A “Contagious” Impact on the Classroom

A t Connecticut College, economics professor Maria Cruz-Saco first noticed

Fabiola Miakassissa (Congo, UWC of the Atlantic, Connecticut College)

when the Davis UWC Scholar — who was born in Congo, grew up mostly in

England, and attended UWC of the Atlantic — took one of her classes as a first-

year student.

“She disputed. She challenged the theoretical foundations of this very formal

way of thinking about the economy,” the professor recalled. “Because of her questions and the way she framed them, I

saw that she had a very critical mind. And I enjoyed that.”

Cruz-Saco has also enjoyed seeing Fabiola’s impact on other students in the classroom. “She brings this very

different perspective from the developing world — that it’s a different reality,” the professor said. “She is very critical

in her views, and that helps propel a great discussion. She infuses the learning process with her clarity, with her

perspective. It’s contagious!”

By the time Fabiola was a junior, she’d been awarded the Beverly G. Kowal Prize as the international student who had

done the most to enrich her college’s intellectual, cultural, and social life. A philosophy and economics major, she had served

in a number of volunteer roles on campus committees and student initiatives. She created and coadministers a Facebook

page for the Economics Department; and when she needed to raise $2,000 to join a clean-water project in a village in northern

Ghana, Fabiola cooked dinner for 200 people, each of whom donated $10 or more.

“I talked to them about the water crisis in Ghana, how it affects people, and what I would be doing,” Fabiola recalled.

Completing that project with the nonprofit Community Water Solutions Project, “I realized that we can do so

much in a very short period of time, as long as the project is well planned and well organized,” Fabiola said in a

telephone interview from Georgetown University’s School of Continuing Studies, where she was doing a semester’s

work on international commerce and trade.

“She has an impact on American kids — they look up to her,” Professor Cruz-Saco observed. “It’s just wonderful

to have students like Fabiola in the classroom. I wish I had many more!”

Project by a Clinton Global Initiative Honoree Assists HaitiLast spring, an economic-recovery project for earthquake-devastated Haiti, developed by Junette

Maxis, Luther ’11 (Haiti, Red Cross Nordic UWC) with fellow students at Luther College, was one of

eight proposals selected out of thousands submitted for a Clinton Global Initiative University award.

“Practical Guides for Survival!” was developed to help Haitians deal with unexpected situations.

“Universite d'Etat d'Haiti (UEH), the state university in Haiti, has adopted the project to help us

engage the educated youth in carrying out the project for future topics,” Junette reports. “I am

currently in St. Louis, where I work as a consultant with Accenture. I have been connecting with

people within the company who are involved in projects in Haiti to learn from them and expand my network. I am still involved with

the Clinton Global Initiative and continue to work with a strong group of students, professors, and executives from the UEH to make

our student-owned project a sustainable initiative in Haiti.”

“Creative Capitalism” for the Developing World

When Shekhar Bhende (India, Mahindra UWC of India,

Northwestern University) read about a talk given by Bill Gates

at the Davos World Economic Forum on creative capitalism, urging

business leaders to focus their energies on creating products with a social

benefit, “the idea resonated with me,” Shekhar said. “I realized business

and philanthropy aren’t really separate.”

That rekindled a creative process that had been developing in Shekhar’s mind. At UWC he had visited Indian villages,

where 75 percent of his country’s citizens still live, and seen some of their needs. Now an engineering student at Northwestern,

he was involved in projects aimed at designing useful new products. He wondered why those efforts couldn’t be focused on

the developing world. “I realized there are huge markets for basic products, especially in India,” he said. “Why not create a

platform to fill those kind of needs?”

As a sophomore, Shekhar started an interdisciplinary student organization, Innovation for Emerging Markets, and

brought into it 17 fellow students from engineering, political science, journalism, and economics. They began working with

nongovernmental organizations active in the developing world on product ideas suggested by the NGOs that could be

affordable, widely useful, and economically empowering.

“Someone once said the market doesn’t reward closing the gap between rich and poor,” reflected Shekhar. “But I began to

think, if you have a little creative capitalism, you can.” His organization has won funding from Northwestern’s Buffett Center

for International and Comparative Studies.

This year, Shekhar, now a junior, and IEM focused on a single promising project: designing a cost-efficient, timer-

regulated drip irrigation system that is affordable for India’s millions of small farmers.“The goal,” he said, “is to design a

product that’s going to go into the market — that we can pitch to entrepreneurs and investors in the communities themselves.”

“A lot of universities from the top down are trying to create something similar” to IEM, noted project advisor Nicole

Patel, assistant director of the university’s Center for Global Engagement. “In Shekhar’s case, it’s been from the bottom up,

supporting students in this type of experiential learning that’s meant to have a global impact. It’s very exciting.”

Harvard Scholars Go in Diverse DirectionsAadhithi Padmanabhan ’08 (India, UWC of South East Asia) — “After graduation I worked at Bain & Company, a management consulting firm, for three years, and spent six months at the New York Immigration Coalition through an externship program. My interest in immigrant rights drew me

back to graduate school, and I started at Yale Law School last fall.”

Joanna Bronowicka ’09 (Poland, UWC-USA) — “I pursued a master’s degree in philosophy at the Sorbonne in Paris, where I focused on migration and remained active in nongovernmental organizations assisting immigrants and asylum seekers. In 2010 I returned to Poland and began to work at an

organization in Warsaw that helps economic migrants. I am currently at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, where I helped organize Poland’s recent six-month presidency of the Council of the European Union.”

Sara Cheche ’09 (Tanzania, Pearson UWC of the Pacific) — “After graduation I worked for the Boston Consulting Group on a diverse variety of projects, from solving human-capital allocation for a philanthropic organization to launching a new European car brand in the U.S. After about a year

I realized I wanted to specialize ‘on the ground’ in project finance, and I wanted to do it in my home country. I moved to Deloitte East Africa’s Corporate Finance team, where I am getting exposure to how corporations raise capital in Tanzania, Kenya, and Uganda.”

Brighton Mudzingwa ’09 (Zimbabwe, UWC-USA) — “I spent six months in West Bengal, India, working for a Boston-based innovation consulting and investing firm, helping entrepreneurial minds deliver business-model innovations to make cardiac care more financially accessible. I then relocated to

New York City, where my focus has been on consolidating my consulting and venture-building platforms with investing tools. I hope to soon focus my energy and physical presence to Africa and the developing world in general. The dream lives on.”

Jan Zilinksky ’09 (Slovakia, UWC of the Atlantic) — “After graduation I worked as a research affiliate in the Department of Economics at MIT, and taught an undergraduate tutorial on experimental economics at Harvard. In the summer I taught economics at Kyungpook National University in

Daegu, South Korea, and was deeply touched by my experience there. I’m now doing graduate studies in economics at the University of Chicago, where I continue to do research in experimental economics and political economy.”

Jorge Alvarez ’10 (Guatemala, UWC-USA) — “After Harvard, I won the Carl and Lily Pforzheimer Public Service Fellowship to work with the government in Guatemala. I spent the fellowship year at home, directing a think tank called the Center of Research for Latin American

Development, teaching economics at Francisco Marroquin University, helping to create a new scholarship program with a group of Catholic schools, and serving on the Guatemalan UWC committee. I’m now at Princeton in the Ph.D. program in economics.”

Anton Chaevitch ’10 (Netherlands, Red Cross Nordic UWC) — “I am doing Ph.D. studies at Harvard in German literature, planning to apply to law school with the aim of bringing some of the insights of German literary and philosophical minds, such as Goethe, into law in a productive manner.”

middle-school level. I tutored five students and worked for the dean of students as an administrative assistant.”

Emily Hogin ’10 (USA, UWC-USA) — “I have interned with U.S. Rep. Jane Harman (D-Calif.) and with the White House chief of staff, and am currently working at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services on a Recovery Act program to help the U.S. health-care system

switch to electronic health records. I think often about my experience at UWC as I witness the consensus-building required to produce change on such a massive scale.”

Andrew Nkumbula ’10 (Zambia, Waterford Kamhlaba UWC) — “I worked briefly as a research assistant at Harvard Business School, then moved to South Africa and landed a job with Absa Capital, a top investment bank and a subsidiary of Barclays Capital. I’m in a sector that looks at Africa’s consumer goods and services companies. It’s been a great experience so far, and I’m happy that I am close to my native country, Zambia.”

David Sengeh ’10 (Sierra Leone, Red Cross Nordic UWC) — “After graduation, I spent a summer in Sierra Leone working with the NGO I started with other UWC students (gmin.org). I then returned to Cambridge to start graduate studies at the MIT Media Lab. My master’s thesis

focuses on developing prosthetic sockets that are comfortable for lower-limb amputees, using rapid-prototyping computer-aided design and manufacturing.”

Xiang Ling Yap ’10 (Malaysia, Pearson UWC of the Pacific) — “In September 2010 I began an M.Sc. in technology and policy at MIT, combining my engineering and economics backgrounds to work on developing a smarter, more sustainable electric grid. In 2011 I was awarded a research and travel grant from MIT International Science and Technology Initiatives to conduct research in Madrid, where I trained in working with a model of the electric grid that is used in regulation and planning in Europe. I have since begun a new research assistantship on innovation in energy technologies.”

Karolis Balciunas ’08 (Lithuania, UWC of the Atlantic) — “After college I joined KCP Capital, a merchant bank, focusing on investments in media, technology, and real estate. I have been deposed to all three areas during my three years with the company, and have lived in Los Angeles and New

York. In the future, I hope to apply my knowledge in business and technology to create innovative solutions that address the way we interact with news media and politics.”

Dhaval Chadha ’08 (India, Mahindra UWC of India) — “Upon graduation I moved to Rio de Janiero on a Benjamin Trustman Fellowship. I spent two years volunteering and working for CDI (cdiglobal.org), an international nonprofit focused on digital inclusion of low-income populations. I curated a TEDx conference, then started my own company, Cria, an innovation consultancy and incubator focused on creating shared-value businesses for clients and independently.”

Isaias Chaves ’08 (Colombia, UWC-USA) — “I did a predoctoral fellowship at Harvard’s Institute for Qualitative Social Science, and co-authored a paper on electoral fraud in 1920s Colombia. In 2009 I started a Ph.D. in political science at Stanford, focusing on 19th-century U.S. and Latin American politics. With Harvard professor James Robinson, I have been conducting a research project on the political consequences of civil wars, for which I have done extensive fieldwork in Sierra Leone.”

Yeguang Chi ’08 (China, Pearson UWC) — “After graduation I took a job as a research assistant to the Laibson Research Group at the National Bureau of Economic Research, then in 2010 I began my Ph.D. program in financial economics at the University of Chicago. I enjoy my studies and the

environment here, though I miss Boston frequently, too. I am very grateful for the Davis UWC scholarship. I would not be where I am today without Mr. Davis’s generous help.”

A Young Voice Challenges the Climate Summit

Where is the courage in this room?” This was the question that Anjali Appadurai

(India, UWC-USA, College of the Atlantic) posed to high-level government

ministers gathered at the United Nations climate-change summit last December in

Durban, South Africa. The College of the Atlantic junior was chosen from hundreds

of youth representatives to deliver their final statement as the talks drew toward an

inconclusive end, with a commitment to negotiate, in the future, carbon-emission cuts.

“You’ve been negotiating all my life,” Anjali declared in the speech she crafted with four other young people.

“...Distinguished delegates and governments of the developed world — deep cuts now. Get it done.”

Reported first on the Democracy Now network, Anjali’s speech made global news, drawing interview requests

from international media, and endorsements from NGOs and celebrities working to curb climate change. But to her,

Anjali said, “the speech was just a sideshow. My real work was following the conference and really tracking specific

policy in the negotiations.”

And although she felt disappointed in the Durban gathering, it gave her a strong sense that young people like her — in

her speech, she called them “the silent majority” — belong on the forefront of the campaign to confront this issue.

“This conference made me think a lot about the role of youth,” said Anjali, who has closely studied climate-

change issues at COA. “I feel a strong drive to continue working in this field, and to continue representing youth, civil

society, and the silent majority. I have a strong sense of having my work cut out for me.”

“She is a fearless personality,” noted Doreen Stabinsky, the professor who led COA’s nine-student delegation to

Durban. “Many of our Davis UWC Scholars are amazing — but she exemplifies what a Davis Scholar is, which is

engaged with the world and with learning, a voracious appetite for knowledge, and kind of unstoppable in terms of a

work ethic.

“This is the uniqueness of students coming out of the UWCs, and they set the bar for other students on campus.

Anjali is one of those students from whom I can ask the impossible, and they ask for more.”

“

A Filmmaker’s Success in Costa Rica Hernán Jimenez, San Francisco Art Institute ’11 (Costa Rica, Pearson UWC), wanted to make films

but didn’t have money or Hollywood connections — so he did a stand up comedy tour and used the

proceeds to make his first film, which was distributed in Costa Rica and seen by over 50,000 people.

He used the proceeds to make his second movie, with help from the online fundraising site Kickstarter.

El Regreso won Best International Feature at the HBO New York International Latino Film Festival.

“El Regreso became one of Costa Rica’s biggest box-office successes in history, bringing in

more than 130,000 people to see it in theaters,” Hernán writes. “I am working on a major stand-

up comedy event at home, and we have begun fundraising and preproduction for a documentary

feature called Traffic, about the collapse of Costa Rica's road system and the emotional impact of

sustained traffic congestion on our population.”

Meeting Needs with EMT TrainingTerence Steinberg, Macalester ’11 (USA, UWC of the Adriatic), was a senior

when he devised a plan to train Macalester students as emergency medical

technicians (EMTs). The course he developed in partnership with the

University of Minnesota and the student organization Macalester First Aid

certified 22 students as EMTs. These graduates formed the core of Macalester

College Emergency Medical Service, a student-run medical response team.

Terence is now the program administrator for the Saint Paul EMS Academy,

which trains and certifies low-income minority youth as EMTs.

In spring 2011, Terence and a Macalester classmate founded A Tu Lado

(www.atulado.net) to extend emergency medical education in vulnerable

communities worldwide. In Caracas, Venezuela, the organization’s first project trained over 80 residents who went on to launch a

community-run emergency response brigade. A Tu Lado also works in Bolivia, training a local organization in emergency care during

air evacuations from remote Amazon villages.

Terence and volunteers who went door-to-door promoting the emergency brigade and conducting research on health trends in Barrio Los Erasos, a slum in Caracas, Venezuela.

“The Real Deal” — Creating Change on Campus

A t Wheaton College, graduating senior Aaron Bos-Lun (USA, UWC-USA,

Wheaton College) has been a force to be reckoned with.

“He is unfailing in his confidence, and seeks out controversy as if it were his

best friend,” Alfredo Varela, dean of the college’s Center for Global Education,

recently wrote about Aaron. “In order to change the world, you have to think

big ... His smile is big, his dreams are big, and his ambition is huge.”

Even though the list of Aaron’s on-campus involvements is long —

founder of the Service Engagement and Activism branch of student government; co-founder of the Davis United World

College House, where UWC graduates live with other students who share their interests in diversity and social action;

coordinator of the annual Wheaton College/United World College retreat, which brings together UWC graduates from

around the Northeast — his off-campus adventures are at least as impressive.

Between UWC-USA and Wheaton, Aaron was a member of City Year, an AmeriCorps inner-city service and

leadership program through which he worked with urban third-graders in Washington, D.C. He traveled to South Africa,

during his first and third college summers, to do HIV-AIDS-prevention work and community outreach in the townships

around Capetown for the Amy Biehl Foundation Trust, which honors an American woman killed while working against

apartheid. And he spent his senior fall semester in Bhutan, the tiny Himalayan nation that is moving from a monarchy to

democracy, researching an honors thesis about that transition and volunteering as a primary-school teacher.

All this, Aaron said, “absolutely grows out of the UWC experience. I saw what young people brought together could

do, how the world could change.” He came to college determined to put his UWC ideals into action. “From day one, I

was thinking very concretely about how I could make a difference in this community.

“I see the UWC mission as something that does not begin until you graduate and you apply it,” said Aaron, who

hopes to combine a career in politics and education.

“Aaron is the real deal,” Dean Varela declared. “At Wheaton, he has created change.”

GRADUATES IN ACTION

Aiding Rwanda’s Remarkable ReboundAfter graduating, Adam Kyamatare, St. Lawrence ’09 (Rwanda, Waterford Kamhlaba UWC),

went home to a country he knew little about. Over the past 40 years, ethnic tensions had torn

Rwanda apart; Adam had grown up elsewhere, and visited Rwanda only a handful of times.

Since returning, he has helped start a microfinance firm and worked in the president’s office as

a communications officer, and is now a junior advisor to the minister of finance.

“What we are doing in Rwanda is immense,” Adam writes. “Almost all our population now

has national health insurance, as well as free primary-school education and one of the best

road networks on the continent. Over the last seven years, our economy has grown by an

average rate of 8 percent. I don’t want to seem immodest, but I know it’s not often that someone as young as myself gets to

participate in making national-level change.”

PRESIDENTS ’ PERSPECTIVES

“Diversity has never been more important on our college

campuses. Our students need to have the chance to live,

to work, to study, and to build networks with their peers

from every conceivable background and from all over the

world. Amherst’s UWC Scholars bring with them a

unique worldview and vision for making the world a

better place — one that serves to enrich, enliven, and

inspire our campus in immeasurable ways.”

“Education, the foundation of a just and prosperous

society, is the key to widespread economic stability,

improved quality of life, and a secure equitable society.

At Brown University, we are proud to welcome Davis

United World College Scholars from around the globe.

These students are immensely talented, and are among

those who represent the best hope for a future in which

we routinely reach across borders and engage in

thoughtful exchange and mediation of our common

concerns. Their interactions with peers, faculty, and

community members are marked by inquisitiveness,

respect, and the motivation to take action on behalf of

their fellow citizens. We are grateful to Shelby and Gale

Davis for fostering such an uplifting program and for

allowing Brown to play a role in the development of

tomorrow’s world leaders.”

“ At the beginning of Earlham’s presidential inauguration,

I was welcomed in dozens of languages by international

students, many of them Davis UWC Scholars. That’s

when the reality of Earlham’s commitment to global

education first became powerfully personal for me. I’m

learning that Davis UWC Scholars don’t just ‘come to’

Earlham; their presence and contributions make

Earlham the truly internationally oriented college it is.

Preparing students for leadership and service in the

global community is central to Earlham’s mission, and

having a large number of Davis UWC Scholars helps us

make that vision real.”

“For a college like ours that places great emphasis on

global perspectives and engaging the world, it’s such a

benefit to have the Davis UWC Scholars on our campus,

infusing the classrooms, residence halls, and extra-

curricular venues with their experience and wisdom.

Thank you for making their enriching presence possible!

The Davis Scholars are greatly appreciated by all the

students, faculty, and staff at Lewis & Clark for their

tremendous contribution to our campus community and

the educational environment here. We are thankful, too,

for the opportunity the Davis program provides us to

contribute to the scholars and, through them, to the

communities and organizations they will lead after their

undergraduate years.”

“The Davis United World College Scholars Program

continues to be a transformational force on the

Middlebury campus. We are particularly encouraged by

the fact that Middlebury alumni, parents, and friends

have taken notice of the program and recognized its

remarkable impact. In increasing numbers, they are

directing their support to financial aid for Davis UWC

Scholars. This is a powerful endorsement, and one that

affirms our commitment to internationalizing the

educational experience of all of our students.”

“Pomona has long recognized the importance of

preparing students for a globally interrelated world. The

college’s alumni have provided leadership to

organizations with international concerns nationwide and

internationally in public service, business and finance,

as well as in the nonprofit sector. We are pleased to

participate in the Davis UWC Scholars Program, because

the presence of the Davis Scholars deepens the

international awareness of the entire campus community

and contributes to the international literacy of all our

students. Bringing the best and brightest students from

diverse international backgrounds to the campus to live

and study together is the best investment one can make

in world peace. Students attend college at a formative

stage in their lives, and many foreign heads of state who

were educated in the U.S. retain a deep appreciation for

the American way of life and the values of open debate

that are at the core of academic freedom and at the

heart of our democracy.”

“A community of scholars, a community of doers, and a

community that sows more than they reap, gives more

than they take from our campus; that’s who the Davis

Scholars are at Skidmore. The cluster of Davis Scholars

at Skidmore College has now grown to a size that makes

a noticeable impact in every facet of campus. We are

additionally now benefiting from graduated scholars who

engage their alma mater in myriad ways. It is evident

that the experience Davis Scholars have at our

universities, coupled with their desire to affect change,

leads scholars back to campus and forever engage with

Skidmore students who are like-minded in their vision

and pursuits. We have welcomed back graduates to

speak about global initiatives furthered by past Davis

Projects for Peace. Graduates have been especially

helpful by staying connected with younger scholars when

students begin their own post-Skidmore pursuits of

careers or pursue further education. Around the world

Davis Scholars are now scattered where they continue to

act responsibly the way their UWC and Skidmore

experiences guide them.”

“The Davis United World College Scholars Program

allows the University of Richmond to attract and retain

international students of the highest caliber. We

consistently find that Davis UWC students arrive on our

campus ready to take full advantage of all that a

Richmond education has to offer, with a measure of

worldliness far beyond their years. Whether through

classroom discussions or informal gatherings with their

peers, the wealth of global experiences and perspectives

these young scholars bring with them enriches the entire

University of Richmond.”

“We treasure our close association with the Davis UWC

Scholars Program. The hundreds of Davis Scholars who

have attended Westminster College over the past decade

have enriched our campus community beyond our

greatest expectations. I am confident in saying we have

learned as much, if not more, from them as they have

from us. They are leaders on campus in every setting;

academic achievement and undergraduate research,

student government, extracurricular activities, arts and

culture, service learning, and community outreach.

Because of the Davis UWC Scholars Program,

Westminster College has become a true global

community where students from across the USA and

around the world gather to live, learn, and serve. Both

inside and outside our academic classrooms,

Westminster students are learning how to create the

kind of community where people from different

backgrounds can prosper together. I am fond of saying

that the global community on campus is the curriculum

in the coming decade.”

“In an increasingly interconnected world, the distances

between people, their countries, and their cultures

continue to diminish. This past year we have witnessed

how powerful natural disasters in Japan, that have

meant severe tragedy for thousands, have also had

significant social, political, and economic impact on

billions of citizens spanning the globe. What happens in

Tokyo affects lives in Toledo and, as many members of

our small residential community can attest, events in

Nagano impact lives in Norton. It has become

increasingly urgent that institutions of higher education

prepare their students to live and work in such a

profoundly interrelated world. One of the most effective

ways to prepare our undergraduates is to create an

environment on campus that reflects the global

community they will be expected to negotiate upon

graduation. Our international student body provides the

most dynamic and influential force as we work to

internationalize our small, suburban campus.”

“Bryn Mawr draws its student body from around the

world, and seeks to educate its graduates to work and

lead in an increasingly interdependent world. One of our

recent Davis UWC Scholar graduates has just such aims

in mind. Antonia Kerle ’11 traveled to Bali, Indonesia twice

during her time at Bryn Mawr to conduct ethnographic

research for her senior thesis on the Balinese women’s

movement. In the U.S. she volunteered as a medical

translator for Indonesians living in Philadelphia; served as

a Southeast Asia intern at the Henry L. Stimson Center,

an independent public-policy think tank with a focus on

global peace and security; and volunteered in a local

political campaign. She is currently living in China as a

Peace Corps volunteer. Our international students,

including our UWC graduates, are well represented

among the most successful and engaged members of the

college community. Whether as leaders of student

government, activists for social change, or colleagues

and collaborators with faculty and fellow students, they

bring a perspective that creates a global education and a

global community for all students and faculty.”

Relatively few in number but of powerful influence,

“Through our partnership with the Davis United World

College Scholars Program, Carolina has recruited diverse

international students from all over the world.

In the last year alone, we increased our enrollment of

international students by 30 percent. The UNC Davis

United World College Scholars stand out as particularly

engaged in the life of our campus. The program will

continue to help us recruit students who are among the

very best in the world.”

“I share the United World College philosophy that a more

peaceful world can result when people of different

cultures come to know and understand each other.

This is the type of community we foster at the

University of Oklahoma, and our community has been

further enriched through our partnership with the Davis

United World College Scholars Program, which has

brought us students from a remarkable range of

countries. Our Davis UWC Scholars continue to make

their mark on our university.”

“Whitman College prepares our students to embrace

some of the world’s most complex challenges by infusing

global themes and perspectives throughout our

curriculum. The Davis UWC Scholars strengthen and

enrich Whitman by bringing their own cultures,

presence and active involvement with faculty and other

students help transform our local, rural setting into a

136 Uniting the World

Applying to Become a Partner School

The Davis UWC Scholars Program reviews

requests on an annual basis from colleges

and universities interested in becoming partner

schools. To be considered, a letter of request

from the institution’s president should be

submitted, explaining in detail why their school

would be a good candidate for the program.

Preference is given to those that have a proven

track record of recruiting graduates from United

World College schools.

It’s essential that applicant schools are

in alignment with the Davis UWC Scholars

Program’s key goal of the internationalization of

the U.S. undergraduate experience by building

clusters of globally aware UWC graduates on

their campuses. Letters may be submitted at

any time during the academic year, but no

later than May 31, as decisions will be finalized

by August each year.

The Davis UWC Scholars Program makes

grants to institutions only—not to individual

students. Grants are awarded based on financial

need to eligible United World College graduates

enrolled at one of the partner schools.
