Connor House, a member of the Patterson Court Community, was founded in 1991 at Davidson College in Davidson, North Carolina. Following in the steps of our founding namesake, Carol Connor Willingham '77, Connor House strives to uphold strong values of leadership by serving the surrounding community.
