All these things that I’ve done…
Sep. 12, 2012—I am back in the swing of things, dear readers, and it is crazy! Though today marks the middle of the 3rd full week of school, I feel like I've been here for way longer. I'm slowly but surely getting into a routine, and fondly remembering all the wonderful things about Vanderbilt (and the not so wonderful thing that is homework).
Enriching a Course
Sep. 12, 2012—Today, I was officially approved to enrich a course. Enriching a course is the College of Arts and Science is only available to College Scholars, a title that I was luckily enough to earn with my acceptance to Vanderbilt. We have the unique opportunity to graduate with honors in the College of Arts and Sciences, which is similar to graduating with honors in your major.
The Wonder of Communication
Sep. 12, 2012—Quite simply, your professors will be the way you can connect to the world. They will write your references to jobs, to internships, to anything you want to do. They will be able to recommend you to their colleagues, and they will help you however they can so long as you reach out to them. Professors LOVE students who reach out.
Central Library Shenanigans
Sep. 12, 2012—One of my first experiences at the Central Library became an epic endeavor in search of a book.
Parks and Rec
Sep. 10, 2012—This weekend, I took advantage of the BEAUTIFUL weather and decided to experience Nashville's parks. Believe it or not, there are so many parks around here. There are not only hiking trails, water falls, and horseback riding, but also outside amphitheaters, playgrounds and museums.
And I’m Off!
Sep. 10, 2012—After weeks of packing, dozens of trips to Target, and triple-checking the weight of my bags (one is 46 pounds while the other is 32…at least they’re under 50!), I’m finally flying to London!
The First Few Weeks: a recap
Sep. 9, 2012—The first few weeks of school have been chock full of activities: soccer practice, AOII meetings, classes, working in Admissions, random adventures, and of course, the ever-present antagonist in all of our lives-homework.
What’s up World?
Sep. 9, 2012—Hello Inside ‘Dores readers! Well this is it, my first of many blog posts for Inside ‘Dores. To get the ball rolling I guess I will just talk about who I am, how I got to Vanderbilt, and what I do here on this awesome campus! My name is Luke Anapolis and I was born...
Its Always Fair Weather (at Vandy)!
Sep. 9, 2012—It rains one minute, shines the next...here's how to deal with it.
You always have fun on retreat…
Sep. 9, 2012—One of the best parts about starting each new semester at Vandy is that you have the possibility to go on retreat with your different student organizations. This weekend, I got to go with my Navigators’ bible study group!
All Aboard!
Sep. 8, 2012—In my last post, I talked a ridiculous amount about food, mostly because school hadn't yet pinned me to my desk or a seat in the Biomed Library, which I fondly refer to as the Eskimo building. Eskind and Eskimo are similar, okay?
