I wrote an editorial my freshman year for the Davidsonian <\/em>saying that I thought that [the mandate that all trustees be Presbyterian] was anachronistic. If Davidson purported to be a liberal arts institution that truly invited scholarship and community from around the world to participate on campus, they can\u2019t do that and not invite non-Christians to be part of the history and the future of the school\u2013 which is what they\u2019re saying to me if I can\u2019t be a trustee. And so, that and the backlash I faced was really my first Jewish experience here.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
