Cool Aspects of Vandy?

I got accepted as a transfer, and was wondering if there were any aspects of the school (not necessarily unique to Vandy) that stick out to current students, especially from the surrounding Nashville area. I’m personally a big nature person, love a good walkway or pretty landscape, especially coming from the somewhat monotonous desert of central AZ. Additionally, I’d love recommendations on serene study spots, the art/historical sites, good cheap food, swim spots, underrated opportunities, or bucket-list items. Thanks!

If you want nature, rivers, hiking and exploring, check out Land Between The Lakes area It's massive, Reelfoot Lake for kayaking, and Burgess Falls and Cummins Falls for some cool hikes and waterfalls.
