PHOTOS OF THE WEEK: Colors on campus

April has arrived with both showers and flowers at Vanderbilt this week.

If April showers bring May flowers, as the saying goes, what do April flowers bring? Check out what photography staffers gathered on campus this week alongside what spring has sprung.

A happy Holi

Students gathered on Alumni Lawn this past Sunday to celebrate Holi, an Indian festival incorporating colorful chalk powder thrown about in jubilee.

Music City

Concert season is back and better than ever this April. Stage lights were dimmed for Kenzie Cait, bar italia, Fall Out Boy, Em Beihold and Chelsea Cutler in Nashville this week.

Editor’s picks 

From Tuesday’s torrential downpour to Wednesday’s windy weather, activity at Vanderbilt has only ramped up as finals season approaches.
