Workin’ Hard For The Money
Nov. 9, 2014—Heather gets a job, and of course it involves food...
My time at Time Inc.
Aug. 9, 2014—Looking at my calendar these days blows my mind. Somehow it’s August again, and soon enough I’ll be back home. No, not home home, but my home away from home — the place I’ve spent a lot more time at than home-home in the last two years. But this year is different than the last couple...
A Real-ly Simple Summer
Jun. 3, 2014—The last time I checked in, I was moping around Hinsdale pining for school a measly thirty hours after I arrived back home, but those days have come and finally gone! Last weekend I made moves across the country (no, really, I moved) to the one and only NEW YORK CITY!
Marathon Summer: Unconventional Engineering
May. 2, 2014—*Guest blog by my roommate and fellow burger-enthusiast, Mary Kate Hardy Last semester I discovered one of the hidden gems of engineering in the form of a Biomedical Engineering elective course, titled Service Learning in Guatemala. This course included a trip to Guatemala over Spring Break to repair and service medical equipment. Never have I had more fun in an engineering class. The hands-on learning experience was incredible, and fine dining and zip lining with your professors was a blast too.
Study Abroad without Studying Abroad
May. 2, 2014—If you’ve ever spent at least 60 seconds with a college student who has studied abroad, chances are that they told you the story of how (insert country here) changed their life for the better. Reflecting upon my semester in Chicago doing my HOD internship, I’ve realized that I have almost had that same study abroad experience (minus the abroad part, of course). Experiencing a new city gave me the chance to take a step away from Vandy, try out the whole independence thing, and eat some of the best food I’ve ever had.
Lessons Learned: Young Alumni Trustee
May. 2, 2014—Early Saturday morning, the Young Alumni Trustee Nominating Committee adjoined to select the top three senior candidates who would be put up for election to be the next YAT representative. If selected, this YAT would be a full Board of Trust member for the next four years. This post is dedicated to prospective students with the hope of encouraging your future success at Vanderbilt.
The HOD Internship Experience
May. 2, 2014—If you, dear reader, eventually find yourself in the same position as me (a stunningly attractive junior or senior in the Human and Organizational Development program at Vandy), then you will be required to complete an HOD Internship. The HOD Internship is a capstone project of sorts for HOD majors, during which students apply the organizational concepts they've learned in class in a real-world setting, a semester-long full-time internship.
