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.

  • McDaniel College alumna Danielle Rowlett Tate '03
    “I learned about mental toughness and that with enough tenacity — and a book — I can figure out anything.”
  • Alumna Lauren Avery '14 throwing the first pitch at an Orioles game.
    “My focus has been on bringing brands right to consumers in large, fun, impactful, and unapologetic ways."
  • 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.
