Meet McDaniel: Profiles from the Hill

Ask anyone their favorite things about McDaniel, and somewhere in a long list they’ll say, “Community.” McDaniel is defined by the scholars, mentors, and alumni who discovered a home on the Hill, so it only makes sense to meet them. Hear from graduating seniors, alumni, and faculty about how they found their place in academics, campus life, and more at McDaniel.

We are McDaniel: Class of 2026

McDaniel’s Class of 2026 is compassionate, bold, and ambitious. Through their time on the Hill, they’ve grown into confident leaders who craft their own opportunities while simultaneously guiding their peers.

Our 2026 senior profiles represent 20 undergraduate programs along with many student organizations and clubs, athletic teams, involvement opportunities, and types of experiential learning.

We’re proud to call them alumni and prouder still to share a selection of their stories here — told as only they can tell them, in their own words.

  • Courtney-Schlotterbeck
    "The Criminal Justice program as a whole was very unique in terms of the faculty...you were learning from all these people that actually work or worked in the legal field and the justice system."
  • Elizabeth Bittings Seay poses for a picture in front of a door in a classroom
    “I really love how McDaniel puts you in the classroom early on and lets you apply the skills you’re learning."
  • 761st Battalion
    Paul Bates ’31 was an Economics major and member of the ROTC. He became a colonel in the U.S. Army, where he advocated for the 761st Tank Battalion — the Black Panthers — during WWII. In 2007, McDaniel posthumously honored Colonel Bates with the Trustee Alumni Award, and every spring awards the Bates Award to the most outstanding male graduating senior.
