Who We Are
Senators Are Value-Driven
Senators pursue deep and meaningful relationships, seek to understand one another across differences, and respect the sanctity of truth and the beauty of the natural world.
Senators Come from All Over
Senators come from all over the nation and world to form genuine connections with one another and with faculty-mentors. While all are unique, Senators share one thing in common: they believe that more is possible for themselves and the world around them.
Senators Are Leaders
As current students or alumni, Senators actively improve their communities on campus and wherever they go. The legacy of our founders, Henry Gassaway Davis and Stephen Benton Elkins is found not just in the industry, the town, or the college they built, but in the spirit of innovation and leadership they left behind. It鈥檚 this spirit Senators channel to help people, improve communities, and influence change.
