Goodbye Pre-med, Hello Possibilities!
Nov. 3, 2011—My consistent indecisiveness leads me to a drastic change in my future… and I really couldn’t be happier!
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,...
Prevailing in Political Science
Oct. 5, 2011—Fall break is so close! I know everyone’s stressing out about papers and exams and projects and presentations and an array of other types of anxiety-inducing events that our professors dish out to see what we’ve learned so far. As of 10 AM this morning, I have only one more midterm to go: a beast...
A Super Stressful Wednesday
Oct. 5, 2011—For some odd reason homework, meetings, more meetings, and class seem to have gotten together to perform a sneak attack on my sanity and sleep schedule today. Looking back though, it was quite a productive 16 hours!
Midterms are here…
Oct. 4, 2011—It’s that time of the semester again–that time when sleep and sanity are hard to find in many students’ vocabularies, when being surrounded by flawless weather makes you a little angry because you know you can’t let yourself be distracted…but you do anyway. Well, it’s that time for me, at least!
My Sister Visits Vandy!
Sep. 26, 2011—This past weekend, my sister Brittany visited Vanderbilt. Below are her thoughts about her weekend:
Small Groups in BIG Classes
Aug. 30, 2011—Vanderbilt is a medium to small private research institution. We have an 8:1 student-to-faculty ratio, with over 3,000 full-time faculty members. 81% of classes have less than 30 students and 92% have less than 50 students. Like most schools, however, entry level science courses (the pre-med requirements) often have around 200 students. Don’t fret, though....
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...
More on Professor Van Schaack
Apr. 11, 2011—Morgan Weisman, my fellow blogger and sorority sister, is right. Academics at Vanderbilt are not always a piece of cake, but there are those professors that make paying $50,000 on a tuition bill worthwhile. Professor Andy Van Schaack is one of those. I realize Morgan elaborated quite a bit on him, but enough can’t be...
