SAB Farmer’s Market takes to The Square
Students filled The Square from 3-6pm today for SAB’s Farmer’s Market, soaking up the sunshine and browsing booths showcasing other student’s wares. The options ranged from crocheted flowers, up-cycled clothing, hand-designed stickers and homemade beauty products. Some students sold their wares for profit, others to fundraise for missions trips. Some were marketing small businesses that had begun during a Lipscomb business class, and others had started their companies before coming to campus. Regardless of where or why the various small businesses had started, students across campus enjoyed them throughout the afternoon. The sun shone, students shopped and Herd Media’s Micah Barkley captured some of the moments. Featured image taken by…

Spring 2026 Theatre season closes with Molière’s “School for Wives”
The court of King Louis XIV took over Shamblin Theater this weekend for a production of School for Wives. Audiences who expected a traditional retelling of the playwright Molière’s comedy were in for a surprise: dancers of the Court wore matching hot pink tennis shoes, servants solved Rubick’s cubes onstage and a suitor serenaded his lover with Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance.” Director Nat McIntyre said he worked to honor Molière’s original story from 1662, but he also wanted to create an adaptation for a modern audience. One of his main changes was to add the court of Louis XIV, who was king during Molière’s time. Audiences were welcomed to the…

Lipscomb Choirs create community for students
Lipscomb University sits just within the peripheral vision of Music City. The campus shares a city with iconic venues such as the Ryman and shares a state with the birthplace of country music. While it may seem easy to be overshadowed by these monuments, Lipscomb University has a thriving musicallife that is authentic to the university. The choirs at Lipscomb contribute to this scene. Dr. Matthew Taylor, the director of choral activities and vocal music education at Lipscomb’s campus, describes the choirs as “a culture that is high-reaching, but kind and intentional. I call our choir a work-hard, laugh-hard kind of room.” Taylor leads two of Lipscomb’s choirs: University Chorale…

Dr. Holmes connects students through the humanities
Dr. David Holmes’ passion for the humanities has moved him across the country and given him a seat at the table. At Lipscomb, he has served as the Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and is now a distinguished professor at the university. However, for Holmes, the humanities mean more than a degree or a title. “The humanities are about the stories we tell and the stories we hear and the stories that change us,” said Holmes. “Stories make a difference.” Holmes’ interest in the humanities began in church. Listening to preachers was the catalyst for his life’s work. “Between that and scripture itself and church music,…
