In a year of three very qualified finalist candidates, Matt Davis stands out as the one whom the Interfraternity Council believes will best serve the University and the undergraduate community as the next Young Trustee. Davis has a keen awareness of University matters considered most important to the Board of Trustees, and he has an excellent sense of how the needs and concerns of the undergraduate community fit within the overall mission of the University.
The residential community forms a centerpiece of the Duke undergraduate experience, and upcoming years will see the housing model undergo a transition into a new era of design. This transition has been set forth by the Board of Trustees, and Davis’ wealth of experience with the most unique aspects of Duke’s undergraduate living and learning community will be invaluable to the Board of Trustees as they make decisions that affect the direction of the University.
Davis has a passion for the Duke spirit and a balanced understanding of what makes Duke such an exceptional place, and most importantly, he carries himself with a demeanor that will propel him to be an effective and respected member of the Board of Trustees as the next Young Trustee.
