New Semester Resolutions
Feb. 6, 2012—Each new semester in college is like a new year…sure you might be taking the second semester of a course (i.e. General Chemistry A vs. General Chemistry B), but it’s still a new class with a new teacher and a lot of new faces, give or take some familiar ones. It’s important to treat each...
Commons Dining
Feb. 2, 2012—So….as y’all know by now, I love to eat….and one of my favorite places to eat is the Commons.
Study Group = Lifesaver
Jan. 30, 2012—I have pretty much spent the last three days studying (super fun weekend) and I think I would have lost my sanity if it weren’t for my amazing study group. We call it that but it is really a few of my close friends who have braved the Organic Chemistry and Biology combo with me.
Aix-en-Vacances
Jan. 28, 2012—For those of you who haven’t seen my other blogs, I am currently studying abroad in Southern France in a city called Aix-en-Provence. However, sometimes students like to joke around…even some of the host families tell us to remember that while our studies are important, it is also essential to recognize that we are on...
Bid Day ’12!
Jan. 16, 2012—As I mentioned earlier in the week, Bid Day was yesterday! After a week of recruitment, freshmen (and some sophomores) were finally offered bids from one of the nine panhellenic sororities on campus.
Hello, Guten Tag, Bonjour
Jan. 12, 2012—Hello — This semester, I am studying abroad in Aix-en-Provence, France with the Vanderbilt-in-France (ViF) program in order to fulfill some final requirements for my French major and to have an amazing experience in Europe!
Reasons to Return to Vanderbilt
Jan. 3, 2012—After studying abroad, I further fell in love with Poland. I’m not the only one to fall in love with the place, though, as many of my fellow students in my program were also not ready to leave Poland; they were ready to go home and see the people they missed, but not necessarily leave...
My 18 Thanksgivings
Nov. 18, 2010—Woah it got cold fast in Nashville! It was 75 last week, and now I’m in a sweater and boots! The Holiday season is among us… It is also the season of eating, eating a lot! During this past week I think I have had, or at least had the opportunity to have about 18...
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...
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.
