Wow! The VIP groups pulled together this year to deliver a wonderful and impressive showcase. After viewing, picking-up, and delivering those large posters, I felt amazed to see what each has learned this year through trial and error by doing their own execution of events, learning about group dynamics, and analyzing data. So I thank each VIP participant for his or her contribution not just the showcase night but for placing VIP as a priority during their hectic academic and personal schedules.

Anyways, the actual event was filled with many VIP students, their peers, people searching for dinner, faculty, and administration. If you were able to attend this event, thank you so much for supporting the VIP program and more importantly its students. At the event, each group highlighted their project with a large presentation poster and discussing their project with the public. Also, because of the excellent work of Vanderbilt Catering, we were able to have equipment set-up and delicious desserts for our audience. In the cafeteria, the Common's Staff set-up a screen for a VIP promotional presentation to be shown as well as a television in the Commons Center Atrium for public viewing of our groups' commercials. Plus, I really enjoyed hearing everyone's opinion on the new VIP logo (results to be revealed soon)!

Overall, I believe this Showcase allowed for the public to understand what VIP has been doing throughout the year and the opportunity to ask students questions, regarding their projects. However, with only a few months left, I know that this year's VIP participants still have more menus to create, myths to bust, cans to recycle, and so much more!
