A Night to Honor Israel
Apr. 14, 2011—Earlier this week I attended an event called “A Night to Honor Israel.” Truthfully, the main reason that I went was to support one of my long time friends, Carver Morgan. He is an amazing person and since I met him almost 10 years ago in the mountains of North Carolina I have always admired...
So Much Sun, So Little Sleep!
Apr. 11, 2011—Ethan has already given you an overview of what Frat Formal season is like but I thought I would throw a girls perspective onto the scene also. I absolutely love spring formals! As a senior I have attended my fair share of formals with fraternities from Vanderbilt and also from Wake Forest. In summary, they...
4:30am Wake Up Calls, Chasing Boys, and Sisterly Bonding – It must be Derby Days!
Mar. 24, 2011—Every year on Vanderbilt’s campus there is a week where sleep becomes non-existent for sorority girls from the hours of 4:30am on, it is not unusual to see a girl pop out of a bush next to you when you are walking down Alumni Lawn to class, and all that loud music, yeah, it’s coming...
Congrats to the New Tour Guides!
Mar. 22, 2011—When you visit Vanderbilt’s campus for a tour sessions you will first sit in on an Information Session led by one of our awesome Admissions Counselors and then you will be led on a campus tour by a current student. However, these aren’t any ordinary students… they are hand picked every spring by the Admissions...
Homework: Go to a Concert
Feb. 23, 2011—I am taking an awesome class this semester! History of Rock Music. Not only is it really fun and interesting but it also counts as part of my Liberal Arts requirements. In class we talk about specific artists ranging from the 1950s to current times including Little Richard, Elvis, Otis Redding, Grateful Dead, Lynard Skynard,...
They don’t clean my bathroom anymore?
Feb. 9, 2011—Throughout my Vanderbilt career I have truly had some great luck in my housing! Freshman year I lived in Branscomb, (Yes, I am that OLD that I never lived on the Commons). Branscomb is the dorm that is right beside Greek row, has a Munchie Mart in the bottom, a great study lounge, and a...
My 4 Sides of Greek Life
Jan. 31, 2011—A few weeks ago Erica and Eileen gave you a good idea of what the decision to go Greek or not is like for a freshman at Vanderbilt. However, as a senior who has literally been on all sides of the system, I thought I would share some my experiences with you also. Read on...
My 18 Thanksgivings
Nov. 18, 2010—Woah it got cold fast in Nashville! It was 75 last week, and now I’m in a sweater and boots! The Holiday season is among us… It is also the season of eating, eating a lot! During this past week I think I have had, or at least had the opportunity to have about 18...
Old Friends and New Adventures
Nov. 2, 2010—Whew does time fly by! I can’t believe it is already half way through the semester. This week my boss at my internship took me out to my “half-way-there” lunch and my professor told us, “well class, today you are officially half-way done with your deliverables for the semester.” This is a very scary thought...
Senior Year Begins with a Jump into the “Real World”
Sep. 7, 2010—Well… it’s happened… I have officially started my senior, and last, year at Vanderbilt University. Is it a bad thing that I was (and still am) extremely jealous of the freshman moving into their dorms a few weeks ago? Is it bad that I didn’t want everyone to come back to campus from their summer...
