“I love Davidson’s Honor‑Code atmosphere, how every class feels like a real conversation and everyone knows each other, but from a past‑student view I’ll say the pressure to always be ‘on,’ the limited nightlife, and the way the tiny‑town‑campus bubble can feel suffocating were all heavier than the glossy tour ever let on.”
