The Davidson College Physics Department and Society of Physics Students are dedicated to sharing the wonders of physics and astronomy with the community. We host two on-campus astronomy community engagements events each year. We can also be found collaborating with schools and other local organizations to bring public astronomy programming to the Davidson area.
