‘Student Life’
Winter is Coming!
Nov. 10, 2013—This popular slogan often associated with Game of Thrones was turned into the title of an awesome VPB event that took place this past Friday night!

The Cradle Will Rock- VUT’s Production
Nov. 8, 2013—I really really like Vanderbilt University Theater. I only started going to their productions last year, and I regret not going sooner. Vanderbilt students are so talented and creative! Also, the all VUT productions are FREE for Vanderbilt undergraduates. That was all the convincing I needed. Last night, I attending The Cradle Will Rock with a friend from class. It is a depression-era musical and I enjoyed it.
Passport to Nashville- Country Music Hall of Fame
Nov. 5, 2013—Since the 47th Annual Country Music Association (CMA) Awards are tomorrow, our campus is buzzing with student who are desperate to get into the show.

James Franklin was there.

Oct. 27, 2013—Last Sunday, CityVU planned another private Whole Foods cooking class sponsored by Vanderbilt Programming Board. We had three classes of twenty students each. The class was completely free and the best part (in my opinion) was getting to eat the food that we made!
More Fun Than I Thought Possible: Fall SPOTS (Part 1)
Oct. 23, 2013—Students do a whole host of things during fall break. A few stay put on campus, some go home, and others go on fun short trips. This year I finally joined some of my good friends on the annual Fall SPOTS trip!
I GOT INTO MED SCHOOL!
Oct. 16, 2013—I thought that I would never see the day. I actually got into medical school. The University of Florida College of Medicine called me this morning to notify me that I have a place in their class of 2018. I nearly fainted when I heard the news.
Don Quixote and Experimental Fiction
Oct. 15, 2013—This semester, my classes are actually fun. I know, it seems strange, but they really are! Now that I have fulfilled the majority of my graduation requirements, I can take classes that interest me.
