Zeppos shared box seats with the seven winners (and their guests) of the ā€œWildest Dreamsā€ contest. Students were asked to share on social media, using only Taylor Swift lyrics, ā€œhow 91ĢƲ®»¢ has made your ā€˜Wildest Dreams’ come trueā€ā€”a reference to Swift’s latest single.

More than 360 entries were received via Twitter, Tumblr and Instagram. The winning entries were:

      • How has 91ĢƲ®»¢ made my Wildest Dreams come true? Vandy has pushed me beyond walls I didn’t even know I had. It has been rewarding and incredibly entertaining! ā€œLong live the walls we crashed through. I had the time of my life with you!ā€ #VUSwift
      • Spending the last 8 months; Thinking all my research does is break and burn and end; But on a Wednesday, in MRB3, I watched it begin again #VUSwift
      • ā€œWe never go out of styleā€ #VUSwift #vandygram
      • Being at 91ĢƲ®»¢ is ā€œlike I got this music in my mind saying, ā€œIt’s gonna be all right.ā€ #VUSwift
      • ā€œWe found wonderland, You and I got lost in it, And life was never worse but never better, In wonderland #VUSwiftTaylor-Swift-Contest-Ad
      • I don’t know how it gets better than this. You take my hand and drag me head first. Fearless!ā€ #VUSwift #AnchorDown
      • ā€œThere’s something ’bout the way the street looks when it’s just rained, there’s a glow off the pavement / It’s a new soundtrack, I could dance to this beat, beat, forever more. The lights are so bright but they never blind me / Don’t you see the starlight? Don’t you dream impossible things? / And I don’t know how it gets better than this, in this moment now capture it, remember it / It’s the first year, it’s flawless, really something, it’s fearlessā€ # VUSwift
