Internal and external forces shaping the future of transportation on the Vanderbilt campus and in the larger Nashville community will be the focus of a town hall discussion hosted by Chancellor Nicholas S. Zeppos on Friday, Oct. 28, from 2:10-4:10 p.m. in Flynn Auditorium at Vanderbilt Law School. All students, faculty and staff are encouraged to attend.

The town hall is part of FutureVU, the university’s campus land use planning process underway now. In addition to Zeppos, Vice Chancellor for Administration Eric Kopstain will speak about FutureVU and specifically about the transportation challenges and opportunities the plan will aim to address. Robert Grajewski, executive director of the Wond’ry, Vanderbilt’s new innovation center, is collaborating with Kopstain on the transportation effort. Grajewski and the Wond’ry staff will assist with opportunities to involve students, faculty and staff in developing actionable next steps following the town hall.
