The Best Things About Vandy
Sep. 13, 2012—After my first summer away from Vandy, I couldn't wait to get back by the time August rolled around. I spent the summer doing research in a lab at home, which was an incredible experience, but Western blots just don't compare to Nashvegas. So for my first ever blog, I thought I'd write about all of the wonderful things that I missed and love about Vanderbilt.
All these things that I’ve done…
Sep. 12, 2012—I am back in the swing of things, dear readers, and it is crazy! Though today marks the middle of the 3rd full week of school, I feel like I've been here for way longer. I'm slowly but surely getting into a routine, and fondly remembering all the wonderful things about Vanderbilt (and the not so wonderful thing that is homework).
Enriching a Course
Sep. 12, 2012—Today, I was officially approved to enrich a course. Enriching a course is the College of Arts and Science is only available to College Scholars, a title that I was luckily enough to earn with my acceptance to Vanderbilt. We have the unique opportunity to graduate with honors in the College of Arts and Sciences, which is similar to graduating with honors in your major.
Central Library Shenanigans
Sep. 12, 2012—One of my first experiences at the Central Library became an epic endeavor in search of a book.
The First Few Weeks: a recap
Sep. 9, 2012—The first few weeks of school have been chock full of activities: soccer practice, AOII meetings, classes, working in Admissions, random adventures, and of course, the ever-present antagonist in all of our lives-homework.
Its Always Fair Weather (at Vandy)!
Sep. 9, 2012—It rains one minute, shines the next...here's how to deal with it.
You always have fun on retreat…
Sep. 9, 2012—One of the best parts about starting each new semester at Vandy is that you have the possibility to go on retreat with your different student organizations. This weekend, I got to go with my Navigators’ bible study group!
All Aboard!
Sep. 8, 2012—In my last post, I talked a ridiculous amount about food, mostly because school hadn't yet pinned me to my desk or a seat in the Biomed Library, which I fondly refer to as the Eskimo building. Eskind and Eskimo are similar, okay?
New Season, New Hopes, New Dreams
Sep. 6, 2012—We're one game in and football season has officially started. Here's to a good season.
Vandy Homecoming
Sep. 3, 2012—After an extended hiatus, I’m back! If I don’t look familiar anymore, it’s because I spent the spring semester studying abroad in Dakar, Senegal!
