The culture of innovation and creativity doesn’t stop there. It is nurtured in and explored by our graduate students, who go on to be lead- ers in academia and research. It flourishes in our talented and accomplished alumni, who put what they learned at Vanderbilt to work every day as engineers, industry leaders, and entrepre- neurs. It is embodied in our outstanding faculty who constantly seek innovative solutions to problems and who are excited by possibilities. The next pages highlight representative profiles of undergraduate, graduate, and alumni design and research at Vanderbilt, fol- lowed by our 2013 catalog of creative student design projects. Outstanding projects include STUDENT PROJECTS the invention of a smart car seat, utilization of JOHN RUSSELL at Vanderbilt University School of Engineering NASA software to improve vacuum cleaners, creation of a robotic nurse assistant and devel- opment of a startup company working on an Contents improved blood cooling and transport system.

He’d also been stuffing four twenty-dollar bills in each boot sole. By mid- July the money had begun to shred and smell like feet. One otherwise unpromising afternoon there’d been a shiny Coupe de Ville out on Ranch Road #5. It was metallic blue. Throwing sun spirals and stars off the bumpers. He and Ben Toy had watched its approach for six or eight miles of scruffy Panhandle desert. They were doing nothing. “Bored sick and dying fast on a fencerail,” Berryman had said earlier. Toy had only half-smiled. “You heard about that greaseball Raymond Cone? I suppose you did,” the conversation was going now.

The park was first created to hold the Centennial Exposition of 1897, a six-month event that brought nearly 2 million visitors to Nashville at a time when the city’s population was barely 100,000. It was the start of not only Nashville’s municipal park system, but public park systems across the state. Since then, Centennial Park has been a place where the people of our city gather and celebrate. The events held here throughout the years – large and small – have reflected the changing culture and values of our city.

ATHENS OF THE SOUTH: COLLEGE LIFE IN NASHVILLE, A NEW SOUTH CITY, 1897-1917 by Mary Ellen Pethel Under the Direction of Dr. Wendy Hamand Venet ABSTRACT The Progressive Era affected the South in different ways from other regions of the United States. Because Southern society was more entrenched in patriarchy and traditional social strictures, Nashville provides an excellent lens in which to assess the vision of a New South city. Known as ―Athens of the South,‖ Nashville legitimized this title with the emergence of several colleges and universities of regional and national prominence in the 1880s and 1890s. In the first two decades of the twentieth century, Nashville‘s universities solidified their status as reputable institutions, with Vanderbilt and Fisk Universities garnering national prominence. Within Nashville, local colleges, including Ward Belmont College, David Lipscomb University, Peabody College, Roger Williams University, and Meharry Medical College shaped and were shaped by the growing city.
