Faces of Vanderbilt
Photos by: Alex Makowski and Tison Rhine
Vanderbilt University is an assemblage of human faces colliding together to form one collective being that we all call home. These snapshots of Vanderbilt are individuals that also represent their unique part of campus
The focus is not on the individuals of these photos but on whom they represent at our school. Each photographer was assigned to create a meaningful portrait of a Staff Worker, a Professor, a Vandy Girl and a Vandy Guy. Please enjoy looking at these photographic slices of Vanderbilt's family.
