Time at home, travel and the Zeppos Tower sum up the winter season for our Photography Section staffers. Mar 5, 2025 From the break between semesters to a January snow day back on campus and everything in between, saying hello to spring is as bittersweet as the goodbye to winter. This winter break, I traveled to Japan with my family. I spent several days in Kyoto visiting temples and shrines. Luckily, it was not peak tourism season. The city was beautiful and quiet, waiting for its first snow.

Vanderbilt alumnus Theo Kandel (B.A. ‘19) and Texas-based band Briscoe took the stage for their first joint show at 3rd & Lindsley on Feb. 20. 2 minutes ago When I learned that Theo Kandel (B.A. ‘19) was opening for Briscoe at 3rd & Lindsley on Feb. 20, I was thrilled. My favorite concerts are always the ones at the coziest, most intimate venues — by far the best ways to truly interact with up-and-coming artists. For Kandel, the concert acted as a homecoming of sorts.

Come along on the journey with me as I reminisce on the spectacular sights I captured through the lens of my camera in the Smokies.

Growing up, I never felt unwelcome, inept or alienated from my peers in mathematics class. A love for numbers was something my parents and I shared. They saw my blossoming potential and hungry mind and were eager to water it, teaching me my multiplication tables early and helping me figure out strategies for solving puzzles in an online math game assigned by my school. Math has always been my favorite subject, and I looked forward to that class period each day at school for twelve years of my life.

One of Vanderbilt’s most notable features is its arboretum status. With more than 6,000 trees, a boasted 3:1 squirrel-to-student ratio and numerous bird species on campus, it’s easy for students to immerse themselves in nature without even leaving the Vanderbubble. However, what many students and staff don’t know is that Vanderbilt is also home to plants in a valuable facility tucked away on the seventh floor of MRB III: the Vanderbilt greenhouse.

As a current sophomore living in Branscomb Quadrangle, one of the things I miss most about living on the Ingram Commons is the inherent sense of community within each of the Commons houses. Branscomb occasionally holds activities for its residents in the lobby or in the quad, but nothing compares to the welcoming microcosm each of us had in our first-year houses, especially since Branscomb isn’t a residential college like Zeppos or Rothschild.
