First Week of Class!
Jan. 12, 2012—The first week of classes, also known as “syllabus week”, is the week where everyone tries to figure out their schedule, and I am often known to go to as many as six classes in a day to try and figure out which ones I like!
Final Friday of Classes!
Dec. 2, 2011—I know I’ve been mentioning how I can’t believe how quickly this semester has gone by for the past few posts. You’d think that I’d be used to it by now, but no such luck. Within a mere week, my third semester at Vanderbilt will officially be over! Ahh. Still can’t get over that.
My Sister Visits Vandy!
Sep. 26, 2011—This past weekend, my sister Brittany visited Vanderbilt. Below are her thoughts about her weekend:
The Joy of Visitors!
Apr. 24, 2011—One of my favorite parts of college is having friends and family visit and being able to show them around! This past week, my uncle came to visit and I was able to give him an unofficial tour of Vanderbilt, as well as go to an Indian restaurant I hadn’t tried out yet called Bombay...
Apply to Become an Inside ‘Dore Blogger!
Apr. 17, 2011—If you read our blogs and love them, and live vicariously through them, then know that you also love Inside ‘Dores Bloggers. And if you go to Vandy, or are coming here in the fall, or you are thinking about applying to Vanderbilt…you probably should consider becoming an Inside ‘Dores Blogger yourself.
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...
Mosaic Weekend
Mar. 20, 2011—For the last four days, I’ve had a high school senior sleeping on my floor. She was here for Mosaic, a multicultural recruitment weekend for accepted students. I signed up to host, which pretty much involved taking Melissa to dinner one night and giving her a place to sleep, even though they probably were not...
Scheduling Begins
Mar. 17, 2011—It’s halfway through March and we’re entering the home-stretch. A (mere?) six weeks of class and a finals week lay between me and a very, very long summer break. It might come as a surprise, then, that the scheduling process for next semester (Fall 2011) has already begun. While it logistically makes sense to open...
“Spirit-Fingers”
Jan. 20, 2011—Yesterday evening, the Vanderbilt Athletic Department and Vandy Fanatics held their biggest event of the year, Memorial Madness, an annual basketball pep rally that ushers in the start of the SEC season. With the promise of the company of close friends, free pizza, jersey/ticket give-aways, prize drawings, the chance to win $10,000 upon successfully landing...
Graphs
Jan. 19, 2011—As I browsed the Vanderbilt Admissions pages, blogs, and various resources in a vain search for inspiration, a horrifying fact became apparent. Despite the large number of available lists, links, articles, pictures, and videos, the Vandy Admissions page is home to not a single graph. Zero. ZERO.
