David Williams II, Vice-Chancellor for University Affairs and Athletics
One of Vanderbilt’s extraordinary assets is Vice Chancellor David Williams. You may know David as the “athletic director” that Vanderbilt is not supposed to have. I am sure it has not gone unnoticed how extraordinarily well all our athletic teams have been doing. The last several years under David’s watch he has done a tremendous job with his role of overseeing athletics and student affairs.
He is a real Superstar and a true Renaissance man. There is yet another facet of his extraordinary abilities that we will be unveiling on campus on Reunion weekend, Friday afternoon at 4:00 PM.
David grew up in the neighborhood in Detroit that birthed Motown. He is one of the world’s experts on this wonderful genre’ of music, delivering a lecture that walks us through the history and sidebars of Motown, replete with an absolutely fabulous sampling of that unforgettable and distinctive musical sound. I’ve already had the opportunity to hear this presentation and let me tell you, it rocks!
You don’t want to miss this. If you don’t do anything else Reunion weekend, you must come to this lecture because David Williams has an extraordinary grasp of his subject matter and when he gets on his groove…it is something else!
