Classes, Day 2
Jan. 11, 2012—Readers, would you be thrilled if I posted every single day? I imagine not. Nevertheless, I am updating to follow up on my article from yesterday, to talk about the next of my classes (I still have a class that won’t meet this week, which will merit its own article next week!).
First Day Back (again)
Jan. 9, 2012—It’s Monday (January 9th) night, and Vandy’s first day of classes is over. Coming back was bittersweet: Bitter because I’m leaving behind all the things I love about home like sleeping in and all the important people! Sweet, though, because I got to see friends I’ve missed a whole bunch for the past month, and...
Majors declared!
Dec. 12, 2011—Today is an exciting day–I’m officially double majoring in English (with a concentration in Creative Writing) and Communications! Declaring my major wasn’t tricky at all (you may remember Eileen’s post on the process) and here’s what my experience looked like:
Class With A Living Legend
Oct. 19, 2011—Every Wednesday at 7:10 I join 99 other incredibly lucky Vanderbilt students and spend the next two and a half hours with a living legend, Professor Jim Foglesong. The class, Business of Music, meets once a week, and could not be taught by somebody more qualified or more distinguished. At the young age of 89,...
A Concert in Class?
Oct. 12, 2011—This semester one of my favorite classes that I am taking is History of Country Music. During class we learn about various artists and movements that have helped shape country music over the past century, as well as what classifies music as “country.” Before taking this class, I knew that I liked country music, but...
Declaring a Major
Sep. 7, 2011—In the College of Arts and Science, students must declare a major by the end of sophomore year. As of last week, I am officially a Neuroscience major.
Guest Blog by Brett Good ’11
Sep. 4, 2011—Hello everyone. I’m sorry I’m not Laura, who I’m sure provides much more insightful and interesting blog posts than I ever could. My name is Brett Good, and Laura was kind enough to allow me to guest blog. I graduated from Vanderbilt this past May in the College of Arts and Science. Currently I work...
Back to School
Aug. 25, 2011—After two days of classes, my nerdy side is coming out again. I love my classes.
Classes
Aug. 24, 2011—Choosing what classes to take is always hard- there are so many amazing ones. But what I have decided is to major in Human and Organizational Development, in the Leadership track, and double minor in Spanish and Political Science. I transferred to Peabody College last semester, from the College of Arts and Science, so I...
Guest Blog by Scott Moskowitz ’11
May. 30, 2011—Two weeks after graduating college, I feel I’m finally able to reflect on my experiences at Vanderbilt and the impact that four years here had on my life. When asked why I chose Vanderbilt, my typical reply is that my naïve seventeen year old self thought it was a good idea. Looking back, I can...
