The Beginning of the End
Aug. 20, 2013—Round 4 commences in a few hours. Being a 3-time veteran of first-day preparations, I knew that it was necessary to soak in all the lazy free time I possibly could before the first day of classes. Once that hits, the busy-bee life of a student here on campus starts!
Senior Beginnings
Aug. 20, 2013—Two days ago, I moved into a residence hall at Vanderbilt for the last time, and I feel pretty conflicted about it. On one hand, there are a ton of things that I’m looking forward to in this new school year, but on the other hand, it’s my last year here at Vanderbilt and I’m not...
California Dreamin’
Aug. 20, 2013—Ever since I can remember, my family has spent a week each summer camping at Doheny State Beach in California, about an hour from home.

The First Five Things I’ll Do At Vandy
Aug. 20, 2013—I’m very excited to head back to school after making many fun memories over summer vacation.

A Chattanooga Send-Off
Aug. 20, 2013—A few days ago, I had to say bye to my Chattanooga home to return for Round 4 of Vandy fun. However, this time around my family and I took a more tourist approach to explore the city before move-in day.
Tour Guide Transition
Aug. 19, 2013—Throughout my time at Vanderbilt, I never really thought about applying to be a tour guide--but thanks to my job in admissions this summer, I'm now a full time guide!
