The Happiest Student at Vanderbilt: Random Things I’ve Done at Vandy (Christmas Edition!)
Dec. 23, 2015—Thus ends the first semester of my freshman year. I was my high school valedictorian and I failed three tests.

A Lecture at the Parthenon

Sep. 16, 2013—Nashville is squeezing every last degree of summer warmth for outdoor recreational purposes.
