Yom HaShoah – Reach Out
Apr. 23, 2012—This past Thursday, the world celebrated Yom HaShoah, or Day of Holocaust Remembrance. Well, how is this related to Vanderbilt? Well, for one, Vandy has a phenomenal Jewish community on campus, but also, last weekend, I had an interesting opportunity that would not have occurred without the effort to create a connection with one of...
Why Vanderbilt?
Mar. 27, 2012—Every once in a while I reminisce back to those wonderful (ha!) months of high school during which I googled different universities every day, wrote personal statements, and stressed about SAT scores…maybe more so now because soon I will have to do the same thing to apply to graduate school…and I remember discussions I had...
Vanderbilt ≥ Home?
Mar. 11, 2012—Only one semester into my life at Vanderbilt, I already feel like a seasoned veteran. Here are my 5 Reasons Why Vanderbilt ≥ Home. No offense mom!

A Different Approach
Feb. 25, 2010—Today Julie Simpson, Professor of Voice at the University of Colorado at Boulder, came to conduct a master class for the voice department at Blair. Before today, I knew what a master class was, but had never been lucky enough to attend one. Not to insult the intelligence of people that already know, but for...
1st semester in review
Jan. 15, 2010—First entry of the year, so obviously not much spring semester class to talk about…the focus will be on the end of 1st semester. Exams were surprisingly manageable. It wasn’t like the stereotypical sleepless two weeks that “every college student” has to endure. I was delighted to find out that paying attention in my classes...
