ICYMI: 10 social media moments from Welcome Week 2024

Welcome Week is one of the most exciting times at Vanderbilt. Take a look at a few of our favorite posts from the start of this new academic year—from the hustle and bustle of Move-In Day, to campus traditions like Founders Walk, to the excitement of the first day of classes.

Although they haven’t been on campus very long, the Class of 2028 is already going viral with this trendy take on pop star Chappell Roan’s TikTok hit that’s amassed more than 5 million views.

Our Move Crew is very demure, very cutesy. 😉
