The past week in the life at Vanderbilt included diving back into classes after spring break, great weather in Nashville and a historic victory for the women’s basketball team.

Music City

“Maybe I’m too emotional,” but I would do anything to relive Olivia Rodrigo’s “GUTS” world tour with opener Chappell Roan at Bridgestone from the emergence of spring break.

Sports

The First Four of the NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Championship ended in a Vanderbilt Commodores win against Columbia on Wednesday, stirring celebration from victory on the court at Virginia Tech all the way here to Nashville. The Commodores unfortunately lost to Baylor on Friday, ending their March Madness run.
