UNITING THE WORLD Davis UWC Scholars

The 2021 Report of the Davis UWC Scholars Program “I’m trying to stimulate leaders of the future to make a difference through the grounding in education that I’m helping to give them. When I started my business career, I took my own history lesson from Princeton: I learned how leaders make a difference, in their countries, in their centuries. So I invested in leaders, and that investment helped me to be successful. …I’m looking to invest again in leaders of the future.”

SHELBY M.C. DAVIS Co-founder and Philanthropist UNITING THE WORLD

“We strive to build critical masses of globally minded young men and women on American campuses, to foster highly personal relationships between outstanding Americans and non-Americans, and to seed global networks. These networks can serve a higher calling of international understanding and common purpose among future leaders in all walks of life in our world.”

he global pandemic made for a year like no other. TChallenged by unpredictable threats, the rhythms of everyone’s daily lives were altered, bringing tragic consequences to many. Resilience, heroism, and hopefulness joined with compassion, creativity, and UNITING THE WORLD cooperation to bring relief and comfort to the afflicted, demonstrating humanity’s better side. For the Davis United World College Scholars Program, the pandemic, related visa hurdles, and stymied global mobility brought unprecedented challenges. In the Davis United World College Scholars Program co-founders: philanthropist face of these challenges, Davis philanthropy stood firm, Shelby M.C. Davis (right) and international educator Philip O. Geier remaining fully dedicated to the program and increasing its financial commitments to ensure ongoing educational opportunities for eligible scholars and expanded resources for partner colleges and universities. And each of these partner colleges and universities deserves special recognition for the extensive care they selflessly provided to their Davis UWC Scholars throughout these trying times. Results were surprisingly gratifying. The 2020-21 academic year reached a new 20-year high with 3,429 undergraduate scholars from 163 countries populating nearly 100 American

4 Uniting the World Davis United World College Scholars Program 5 colleges and universities. Cumulatively, since its inception at the advent of the 21st century, the program has benefited over 11,000 scholars, and, remains committed even more than ever to its five main goals:

» provide scholarship support for exemplary and promising students from a wide range of countries and cultures, who have absorbed the passion and mission of their UWC schools for building international understanding; In Memory of Stirling William “Bill” Kolb, » build meaningful clusters of these globally aware scholars within the undergraduate University of Florida’s Davis UWC Scholars Program Liaison and Senior Advisor populations of selected partner colleges and universities across the U.S.;

» help transform the American undergraduate experience through international diversity and intercultural exchange — as much for the large majority of traditional American students as for the scholars;

» leverage the value of this philanthropic initiative — to the long-term benefit of all learners and their teachers — to contribute to strategic shifts in institutional thinking, and to bring greater resources to the effort; and

» contribute proactively to the well-being of our volatile, highly interdependent world by expecting our scholars and those with whom they interact to take personal responsibility for helping shape a better world.

Bill Kolb (far left) with Shelby Davis (middle), Phil Geier (far right), and the Class of 2016 Davis United World College Scholars at the University of Florida The Davis UWC Scholars Program is at once practical and inspirational. It reflects the huge potential of private philanthropy to promote international understanding in dynamic, expanding ways, through educational institutions that share its strategic vision and are committed to building greater opportunities for global engagement for all their students. In essence, the program is about using philanthropic leadership to leverage additional support for transformative impact on individuals, institutions, and the wider world.
