Duval is unique, in my opinion, because it is not ‘unique’ to one particular thing. We have a wide variety of interests, talents, and personalities in comparison to other colleges. We are not the ‘Med’ kids, the ‘Ag’ kids, the ‘Rich’ kids, or the overly... ‘social’ kids. I believe this gives us the ability to accept each other for our differences and thrive in a number of areas. Not only are we academics - holding the highest GPA average out of all the colleges, but we also are dedicated participants in all areas of sport. We are passionate about our Kayaking Club, the performing arts, and representing ourselves proudly within the Armidale community. Ultimately, Duval is unique because it is accepting, and driven to thrive as a whole; embracing each strength and difference, and for that I am proud to be a Duvalian.
