In the classroom and on the stage

Things were up and down over the last week for the Vanderbilt community and greater Nashville. This week brought the campus together through sports, The Dances of South Asia Showcase, hawks, falcons and raptors in a Neurobiology class and more.

Season’s greetings

Vanderbilt men’s and women’s basketball teams opened their seasons this week and had drastically different outcomes. The women’s team have opened with a 4-0 streak, whereas the men’s team dropped both of their home matchups.

The baseball team also hosted the first David Williams Fall Classic this week, playing an intrasquad scrimmage to show off their fall training.
