This Week’s Funtivities
Sep. 21, 2012—This week, I decided that every day I would take a small study break and enjoy something uniquely offered at Vanderbilt. I'm going to be honest and say that I thought it would be difficult to find fun things to do every day. Is there really a Vanderbilt sponsored activity that I could enjoy every day? There is! And, if I were a betting girl, I'd bet that there would be everyday funtivities for you too!

Almost back to the grind…
Aug. 21, 2012—This post comes to you from the common room of my apartment-style dorm back at Vandy! I moved in on Saturday, and in true Vanderbilt style, a plethora of things have happened since.
Getting Started
Aug. 20, 2012—Move-in day has come and gone, and the first years are beginning to settle into their new rooms on the Commons. The weather is mild, the meal plan has started (to prevent starvation by hungry upperclassmen), and the first day of classes starts in about 36 hours. Apart from the annual advent of academics, this...
“If I knew then what I know now…”
Aug. 20, 2012—Today, I partook in a first-year orientation panel themed “If I knew then what I know now…” Dr. Karen Campell, one of the Deans of Undergraduate Education invited several upperclassmen to give 1-2 suggestions to the first-years and then participate in a Q&A session.
Long Time, No Blog: End of the Summer Round Up!
Aug. 6, 2012—Well, it isn’t the end yet. Summer 2012 has been my most productive (that is, I haven’t sat around on my couch quite as much according to my mother). Without boring you with the details, I’d like to quickly glance back at my summer and look ahead to the coming semester!

In fact, this is probably the first time since kindergarten that you’ve been this excited to enter an academic institution. Well, I’m here to tell you that you are so so right to be thrilled!
