Getting Involved At Vandy: The Politics Edition
Sep. 13, 2015—The following is a guest blog post by my awesome and talented friend, Caroline. Thank you for sharing your insight and perspective, Caroline! Hey guys! I’m Caroline and I’m a sophomore Public Policy Studies major from Florida. I pretty much live and breathe politics, so Aditi asked me to write about all the cool opportunities...
Reflecting Back on ASB
May. 7, 2015—Less than a week ago, the New York Times published an article about the Pine Ridge Native American Reservation in Kyle, South Dakota. The same reservation where I, coincidentally, spent my spring break on ASB two months ago.
Keep Calm and Apply
Mar. 1, 2015—As my fellow blogger James mentioned, February is the time to apply for many different positions.

Jan. 29, 2015—One of the hardest parts about leaving home was saying goodbye to my dogs Tommy and Sophie. Tommy is in doggie heaven right now, probably chasing squirrels. So, my golden retriever Sophie is the only sibling I have left. Needless to say, meeting her at an interval of five months is one of the downsides...
MLC’s Masquerade Gala
Jan. 18, 2015—I had always wanted to be a part of the Multicultural Leadership Council (MLC) at Vanderbilt because it showcases and celebrates the diversity at Vanderbilt.
