| "At Davis, I learned not only how to understand the Bible, but how to truly apply it to pursue with passion the purpose God has for me. The experiences I had as a student serving at local soup kitchens moved me to accept a position within a non-profit organization that works to end the cycle of poverty and homelessness throughout New York." - Rebecca Rathmell, '08 |
