MAJORS and FACTS Vanderbilt fosters entrepreneurial spirit as fiercely as we

defend classic disciplines. There's more rolling up your sleeves than popping your collar. Whether in class or overseas, students are as motivated by humanity's needs as by their own.

Vanderbilt offers undergraduate programs in the liberal arts and sciences, engineering, music, education and human development, as well as a full range of graduate and professional degrees. The combination of cutting edge research, liberal arts, nationally recognized schools of business and divinity and a distinguished medical center creates an invigorating atmosphere where students tailor their education to meet their goals and researchers collaborate to solve complex questions affecting our health, culture and society

COACH JAMES franklin February 3, 2011—Vanderbilt Football Coach James Franklin

got some great presents for his 39th birthday, which fell on National Signing Day, Feb. 2.

“Because of this staff, I was able to open up a lot of presents this morning,” Franklin said.

Two four-star recruits signed to play for the Commodores: Lafonte Thourogood out of Ocean Lakes High School in Virginia Beach, Va., at quarterback, and Dillon van der Wal out of Oaks Christian High School in Woodland Hills, Calif., at tight end/defensive end. Both had verbally committed elsewhere, but ended up signing with the Commodores.
