Benbow

ABC News also reported that Benbow said Joseph and Mohyuddin, the assistant dean whose name is also on the Feb. 16 email, have stepped back from their responsibilities with the EDI office while the investigation is underway.

ABC News reported that Camilla P. Benbow, the dean of Vanderbilt’s Peabody College, said in a statement that she was unaware of the email before it was sent and that the incident is under investigation.

Benbow, Joseph and the school’s communications department did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Every few minutes a carload of friends or fans rolls by — either leaving the show or heading to the nearby Benbow Room where the group will keep their “Save the Baby” release party rolling with a late-night DJ set — shouting inside jokes and unleashing a stream of celebratory honks.

For all the development that’s touched nearly every pocket of the city, that neighborhood feel has remained intact, as younger bars and restaurants like the recently revived Benbow Room have joined staples like the Husky Deli and Yen Wor Village, Amaker says.
