Performances! Performances! And yes….more performances!
Dec. 13, 2012—As the semester comes to a close, student group performances start popping up like mad! Every weekend is so chock full of performances you can't conceivably attend them all and still have time to study and sleep. As such, I wanted to write this blog post to talk about all the great students organizations that Vanderbilt has to offer.
A Snapshot of Samantha
Dec. 12, 2012—As I sit here on a slightly lumpy chair in a dorm on the 6th floor of Lewis, surrounded by friends and eating a fresh strip of bacon and a homemade omelet (the product of a breakfast-for-dinner attempt), I am overwhelmed by how happy I am.

My Job
Dec. 9, 2012—Though many of my friends at Vandy hold on campus jobs during the semester to help cover expenses, I have never worked during the school year - until this semester.
