Our mission at Davis & Elkins College is to produce critical thinkers and lifelong learners. Why? Because those are the people who may try and fail, but they also can adapt and grow. The ones who press on until they succeed. But success for its own sake is empty. Senators are value-driven. They value deep and meaningful relationships, seeking to understand one another across differences, the sanctity of truth, and the beauty of the natural world.
