‘student organizations’
Family
Feb. 14, 2011—There comes a time in every college student’s life when they realize that they have a person or group of people that makes them feel completely at home. This could be a roommate, a friend group, an extracurricular organization, a professor, or even a particularly friendly janitor. For me, it’s the Original Cast.
Fridays at Dismas
Feb. 1, 2011—Friday nights I go to the Dismas House. I know what you’re thinking – don’t you have fun on the weekends? Well, yes I do. I really do.
Sorority Perks
Jan. 30, 2011—As a member of Vanderbilt’s varsity Women’s Lacrosse team, I hope to offer a new perspective to the blogging site by providing information about activities, services, and service opportunities both inside and outside of athletics. Having just gone through sorority recruitment, I would like to focus this first blog on my participation in Greek Life.
NINE
Jan. 22, 2011—Keepin’ it short and sweet here. I went to see Vanderbilt Off Broadway’s (VOB) production of NINE: The Musical tonight at Blair (after journeying to the wrong part of campus… One could logically assume a musical would be in the “theater.”), and it was phenomenal. There were parts where a few singers were pitchy, or...
Cages or Wings, Presented by the Original Cast
Dec. 6, 2010—This past weekend, I attended a performance of Cages or Wings, a musical by the Broadway Revue Troupe, the Original Cast. I was blown away by the show! I’ve always enjoyed theatre, but considering I didn’t even know what a “revue troupe” was until Friday, the perfomance definitely exceeded my expectations.
Panhellenic Preview
Nov. 15, 2010—Last Saturday was a busy day for many girls on the Vanderbilt campus, as it was Panhellenic Preview Day! Any freshman considering rushing in the spring got to visit each sorority house and talk to the sisters for fifteen minutes.
An Evening with the Chancellor
Nov. 9, 2010—Last week for Vanderbilt Visions all of the first-year students attended “An Evening with the Chancellor,” in which each Visions group prepared a few questions to ask Chancellor Zeppos. The questions ranged from professional, to personal, to even pretty random. We learned that if Chancellor Zeppos could have any super power, it would be the...
Professors…They’re Real People Too
Nov. 1, 2010—This week for Vanderbilt Visions, the freshman orientation program, my group went to an event called Talking Heads at Dean Wcislo’s House. The ‘talking heads’ were three of the Faculty Heads of Houses of the Commons. This installment of the Talking Heads series featured Chalene Helmuth, of Sutherland House, and Tony Brown and Chase Lesane-Brown,...
‘Dore for a Day
Oct. 18, 2010—I’m involved with the ‘Dore for a Day program with the AmbassaDores, and I hosted my first students last week! I actually had a lot of fun and I think I showed the students a good, real perspective of Vandy. We started out walking to the Commons and eating lunch in the dining hall, because...
Family Weekend
Oct. 12, 2010—This weekend, Vanderbilt celebrated official ‘Family Weekend,’ so my parents and grandparents made the trip and spent the weekend with me.
