Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholder,

Anyone hoping that the financial markets might become a bit more settled after the Federal Reserve’s long-anticipated rate increase—announced December 16—would have been disappointed during the six months ended April 30, 2016. Stocks slumped in December through mid-February before rebounding to finish the period just inside positive territory. That volatility led investors to favor safer assets, a trend that generally benefited larger-capitalization stocks and more defensive sectors.

Because Vanguard Windsor Fund often looks for opportunities beyond traditional defensive sectors, it didn’t participate as much in their relative outperformance. With stock selection disappointing in some sectors as well, the fund returned –2.18% for Investor Shares and –2.14% for Admiral Shares, with their lower expense ratio. Those results lagged the 1.93% return of the fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index, and the average return of 0.47% for multi-capitalization value peers.

U.S. stocks traveled a rocky road, finishing the period about even

The broad U.S. stock market delivered little in the way of returns for a half year marked by inconsistency, sharp declines, and even sharper rallies.

After struggling during the first four months of the period, U.S. stocks rebounded in the final two. Most of the surge came in March as investors cheered the Federal Reserve’s

indication that it would scale back its original plan for interest rate hikes in 2016. Continued aggressive stimulus by central bankers in Europe and Asia and a recovery in oil prices also helped.

International stocks traced an even rockier path than their U.S. counterparts en route to modestly negative returns. Developed markets, especially Europe, notched weak results, while emerging markets managed a slight advance.

Bonds have proved attractive with help from the Fed

The broad U.S. bond market returned 2.82% for the half year. After retreating in November and December, it recorded positive results for each of the next four months. It also received a boost from the Fed’s cautious approach to raising short-term interest rates.

The yield of the 10-year U.S. Treasury note closed at 1.83% at the end of April, down from 2.17% six months earlier. (Bond prices and yields move in opposite directions.)

Even though the Fed raised short-term interest rates a quarter of a percentage point, the target rate of 0.25%–0.5% was still very low historically, and it restrained returns for money market funds and savings accounts.

International bond markets (as measured by the Barclays Global Aggregate Index ex USD) returned 8.72%, boosted by foreign currencies’ strength against the dollar—a reversal from the trend of recent years. Even without this currency benefit, however, their returns were solid.

Skittish investors favored utilities and telecom stocks

Although underperformance is always disappointing, the Windsor fund held true to the distinctive strategy that has served it well in the past. Wellington Management Company and Pzena Investment Management, the fund’s advisors, both aim to produce better returns than the fund’s large-cap, value-oriented benchmark over the long term, each carrying out its own company-by-company search for the most undervalued securities.

Lighter-than-benchmark allocations to defensive sectors, which have been a positive for the fund at times, proved a handicap. Market volatility sparked by sharp shifts in the outlook for interest rates and growth led nervous investors to gravitate toward defensive sectors, which tend to offer relatively stable revenues and attractive dividends. Even as the overall stock market ended virtually flat for the six months, the telecommunication services and utilities stocks in the benchmark produced double-digit gains.

Do U.S.-based multinationals provide enough global diversification?

Some investors believe that their portfolios get enough exposure to international stocks

through their holdings in large-capitalization, multinational U.S. companies such as the ones

represented in the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index. After all, those firms generated almost half

of their total sales outside the United States in 2014.*

However, international exposure based only on a broad index of U.S.-based companies would

be patchy at best. The near-even split of domestic and foreign sales for S&P 500 companies

is an average; when you look at individual sectors, a different picture emerges. Information

technology firms earned the highest percentage of sales abroad (almost 60% in 2014). Utilities

and telecommunication services, which tend to operate regionally or nationally, generated the

least overseas revenue.

As the chart below shows, such a portfolio would also differ significantly from a broadly

diversified global portfolio in some sector weightings. It would, for example, have more

exposure to IT and health care stocks and considerably less to materials and financials.

The bottom line: Large-cap U.S. stocks can give you a degree of exposure to international

economic and market forces, but not to the same extent as a combination of both U.S. and

non-U.S. stocks.

S&P 500 Index sector weightings vary from those of global stocks

(Differences in percentage points)

Notes: Data are 12-month-average sector weightings as of March 31, 2016. Global stocks are represented by the FTSE All-World Index.

Sources: Vanguard calculations, based on data from S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC and FTSE International Limited.

* All S&P 500 Index and sector revenue data are from S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC for 2014.

There are additional risks when investing outside the United States, including the possibility that returns will be hurt

by a decline in the value of foreign currencies or by unfavorable developments in a particular country or region.

The fund’s advisors saw more potential over the longer term in some cyclical sectors, including consumer discretionary and information technology, both of which posted negative six-month returns. The fund had about 10% of its assets in consumer discretionary stocks at the end of the period, about double the benchmark’s exposure. In technology, which accounted for close to 16% of its assets at the close of the half year, the fund had an overweight allocation to the volatile semiconductor segment.

Subpar stock selection also contributed to the fund’s underperformance. Its insurance holdings were a drag on returns in the financial sector. That industry tends to be more sensitive to movements in longer-term interest rates, which ended the period significantly lower. A few positions in transportation and electrical equipment accounted for a good part of the lag in industrials. And in consumer discretionary, the leisure segment disappointed.

There were some bright spots, however. The fund was underweighted in energy stocks, which have been on a roller-coaster as the price of oil has dropped and rebounded along with concerns about supply. Holding some of the better performers and sidestepping some of the worst helped the fund beat its benchmark in this sector. Holdings in consumer staples, especially among food companies, were supportive as well.

For more information about the advisors’ approach and the fund’s positioning during the year, please see the Advisors’ Report that follows this letter.

Whether a fund is indexed or active, low costs and talent matter

If you listen to some investing pundits, you might think index and actively managed investing are incompatible opposites. We at Vanguard don’t see it that way.

To us, it’s not index versus active. In fact, depending on your goals, it could well be both.

Vanguard is a pioneer in index investing. In 1976, we opened the first index mutual fund, giving shareholders an opportunity to track the performance of the S&P 500 Index. But our roots in active management—which aims to choose investments that will outperform the market—go back to the 1929 launch of what became Vanguard Wellington™ Fund.

Our index and active funds share important traits. Both are low-cost, and as their assets grow, we can further cut expenses and pass on the economies of scale to investors. That allows you to keep more of your fund’s returns.

And low costs aren’t the whole story. Talent and experience are vital regardless of a fund’s management style.

Portfolio managers in our Equity Index Group and Fixed Income Group have honed their indexing expertise over decades. That knowledge helps our index funds meet their objectives of closely tracking their benchmarks.

Our active funds, too, benefit from world-class managers—both our own experts and premier money managers we hire around the globe. There’s no guarantee that active management will lead to market-beating results, but the combination of talent and low costs can give investors a better chance of success.

If you’d like to know more, see Keys to Improving the Odds of Active Management Success and The Case for Index-Fund Investing, available at vanguard.com/research.

As always, thank you for investing with Vanguard.

Sincerely,

F. William McNabb III

Advisors’ Report

For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2016, Investor Shares of Vanguard Windsor Fund returned –2.18% and lower-cost Admiral Shares returned –2.14%. Your fund is managed by two independent advisors, a strategy that enhances the fund’s diversification by providing exposure to distinct yet complementary investment approaches. It is not uncommon for different advisors to have different views about individual securities or the broader investment environment.

The advisors, the percentage and amount of fund assets that each manages, and brief descriptions of their investment strategies are presented in the table below. The advisors have also prepared a discussion of the investment environment that existed during the period and of how their portfolio positioning reflects this assessment. These reports were prepared on May 17, 2016.

U.S. stocks ended the six months in positive territory, though it was a wild ride. Macroeconomic concerns (China, oil, credit spreads, Fed tightening, negative interest rates in Europe and Japan, the U.S. presidential campaign, and recession fears) dominated early in the period. After a sharp stock correction, investor psychology pivoted, leading to a value-driven rally that erased earlier losses.

Although a number of longer-term issues remained unresolved, there were some positive developments: U.S. economic data improved modestly, a new round of fiscal stimulus began in China, and credit spreads

narrowed. The U.S. dollar’s stability boosted depressed oil and commodity prices, which also lifted returns. As did short covering by hedge funds and a sense that valuation premiums being paid for safety had simply gone too far.

Lower-beta and relatively “safer” areas of the market outperformed. Financials was our worst-performing sector; it declined –2.1% for the index, driven largely by adverse selection. Top individual detractors included Ameriprise Financial and Principal Financial Group, which were hurt by uncertainty about the Department of Labor’s new fiduciary rules. Our overweighted exposure to banks and insurance, two industries that would benefit from higher interest rates, further weighed on relative results.

We also lagged in industrials. Macroeconomic factors caused the manufacturing sector to struggle for much of the period. Although stocks including Honeywell and Raytheon (both of which we own) outperformed, we missed a positive return in General Electric, which holds a large weighting in the index. Additionally, more financially levered holdings such as Hertz, Sensata Technologies, and Rexel experienced significant pressure. We eliminated our position in Rexel.

In consumer discretionary, our holdings in Norwegian Cruise Line and Delphi Automotive detracted from returns. Norwegian gave back a portion of its strong gains because of concerns about

the Zika virus and, more recently, because of investor nervousness about the health of the emerging market for cruising in China. We nevertheless expect favorable industry conditions to persist over the next several years and believe the stock is quite undervalued.

Delphi disappointed on investors’ fear of a maturing global auto cycle. We maintain our position as we believe the company is well-positioned to take advantage of consumers’ growing demand for safe, green, connected vehicles.

Information technology was our best sector on a relative basis. We owned a number of strong performers, including Arrow Electronics and Avago Technologies. We were also rewarded for our underweighted exposure to benchmark constituent Apple, which fell more than 20% during the period.

We captured positive returns in health care as well, benefiting from our large position in Bristol-Myers Squibb, a leader in immuno-oncology. We continue to believe most investors are underestimating its potential, and we see substantial earnings upside versus consensus over the next few years. Our position in Medtronic also aided relative results. The company is a major player in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), which has been a healthy performance driver. Our avoidance of Gilead Sciences, which fell nearly 20% on weaker-than-expected first-quarter results, was another positive.

Our sector positioning has not changed meaningfully over the past six months. However, we did increase our exposure to the energy and health care sectors and decrease our exposure to consumer discretionary. At the end of the period, we remained overweighted in financials, energy, health care, and (slightly) in materials. We had underweighted allocations to consumer staples, information technology, telecommunication services, consumer discretionary, utilities, and industrials.

Looking ahead, we believe near-term recession risks have diminished, which provides a better backdrop for many of our cyclical holdings. We remain relatively bullish on the energy sector after producers’ dramatic cutbacks in drilling. However, global nominal growth remains disappointingly slow despite aggressive monetary stimulus. Many longer-term worries are still unresolved, and with little margin for error, the economy remains vulnerable to any unforeseen shocks. It’s difficult to have high conviction in longer-term macroeconomic forecasts.

We think our best investments will be in companies with good management teams that can drive value through internal improvements. We expect markets to stay volatile and will endeavor to use swings in investor sentiment to identify new longer-term value opportunities for shareholders.

and Co-Director of Research

Heading into the end of 2015 and early 2016, the markets dropped sharply, driven by a decline in energy prices and fears of a collapse in emerging markets. The Russell 1000 Value Index troughed in early February before sentiment quickly reversed, finishing up 1.9% for the six months ended April 30, 2016. Our investments in global money centers and investment banks as well as a lack of exposure to utilities caused the portfolio to underperform. Our energy companies did a bit better.

Our financial holdings consist of global banks, insurers, asset managers, and wealth management companies. They were affected by fears and uncertainties about declining interest rates, increased regulation, and loans to energy and commodity companies, which significantly reduced global and investment bank valuations.

The top detractors were Bank of America and Citigroup. Bank of America’s performance was hurt by long-term interest rates. Most of its businesses showed year-on-year growth, and the bank continued to bring down expenses, which historically have been higher than those of its peers. Citigroup is among the cheapest U.S. money center banks and trades below tangible book value. It has benefited from ongoing improvement in its institutional client business, steady growth in its global consumer business, and the elimination of Citi Holdings.

We took advantage of the valuation dislocation by repositioning our financial holdings. We trimmed advisory and insurance brokerage Willis Towers Watson when it outperformed after Willis and Towers Watson merged. We also reduced our holdings in property and casualty insurer American International Group (AIG) after a strong quarter and sold our shares in Progressive. We redeployed the proceeds into Voya Financial, Morgan Stanley, Citigroup, Bank of America, and Goldman Sachs.

Our technology exposure detracted slightly because of our position in Seagate Technology. We added Seagate—a dominant manufacturer of hard disk drives—to the portfolio on weakness due to declines in personal computer sales and share loss caused by a missed product cycle. As data moves from PCs to the cloud, demand for commercial hard disk drives will increase and should benefit Seagate’s performance.

Entering 2016, an opportunity presented itself when the broad energy sector collapsed as the price of Brent crude dropped another 25%. Our analysis has shown that oil prices are not sustainable at these levels. As a result, we increased our energy holdings, adding ConocoPhillips, the world’s largest exploration and production company, and Cenovus Energy, a Canadian integrated oil company with a 20+ year reserve life from oil sands. We believe these firms are attractively valued and have some of the strongest balance sheets in the industry, with the financial strength to withstand low prices for a reasonable time.

Other contributors included Parker Hannifin, a manufacturer of motion and control technologies for various mobile, industrial, and aerospace markets, which reported stronger earnings on good cost control. Walmart’s stock rebounded in November, supported by low labor wage inflation and top-line growth through increased investment in the store experience and e-commerce.

We added considerably to our position in Dover, a manufacturer of specialized industrial equipment. The company has a strong balance sheet and a high return on capital due to limited competition and high barriers to entry. Its stock has traded down

in line with oil services stocks even though only 26% of its revenues derive from energy. In health care, we added Merck & Co. as a replacement for Aetna. A global leader with a diversified product set and a number of strong franchises, Merck is trading at one of the lowest valuations among global pharmaceutical companies.

In the past, valuation spreads have often been a strong predictor of favorable value investing environments. Spreads have consistently widened since 2011 and approached attractive levels in mid-February. As described, we made some adjustments to our energy and financial holdings to take advantage of the opportunity. Together with mature technology investments, these are now our largest exposures. We have less exposure to sectors deemed “safe,” such as health care, consumer staples, utilities, and telecommunication services.

Windsor Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Windsor Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers two classes of shares: Investor Shares and Admiral Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. investment companies. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued at their fair values calculated according to procedures adopted by the board of trustees. These procedures include obtaining quotations from an independent pricing service, monitoring news to identify significant market- or security-specific events, and evaluating changes in the values of foreign market proxies (for example, ADRs, futures contracts, or exchange-traded funds), between the time the foreign markets close and the fund’s pricing time. When fair-value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Temporary cash investments acquired over 60 days to maturity are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Other temporary cash investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

2. Foreign Currency: Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates obtained from an independent third party as of the fund’s pricing time on the valuation date. Realized gains (losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment securities include the effects of changes in exchange rates since the securities were purchased, combined with the effects of changes in security prices. Fluctuations in the value of other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains (losses) until the assets or liabilities are settled in cash, at which time they are recorded as realized foreign currency gains (losses).

3. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objective of maintaining full exposure to the stock market while maintaining liquidity. The fund may purchase or sell futures contracts to achieve a desired level of investment, whether to accommodate portfolio turnover or cash flows from capital share transactions. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market. Counterparty risk involving futures is mitigated because a regulated clearinghouse is the counterparty instead of the clearing broker. To further mitigate counterparty risk, the fund trades futures contracts on an exchange, monitors the financial strength of its clearing brokers and clearinghouse, and has entered into clearing agreements with its clearing brokers. The clearinghouse imposes initial margin requirements to secure the fund’s performance and requires daily settlement of variation margin representing changes in the market value of each contract.

Windsor Fund

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate settlement values of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

During the six months ended April 30, 2016, the fund’s average investments in long and short futures contracts represented 1% and 0% of net assets, respectively, based on the average of aggregate settlement values at each quarter-end during the period.

4. Repurchase Agreements: The fund enters into repurchase agreements with institutional counter-parties. Securities pledged as collateral to the fund under repurchase agreements are held by a custodian bank until the agreements mature. Each agreement requires that the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal. The fund further mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into repurchase agreements only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, and entering into master repurchase agreements with its counterparties. The master repurchase agreements provide that, in the event of a counter-party’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any repurchase agreements with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed, and sell or retain the collateral up to the net amount owed to the fund. Such action may be subject to legal proceedings, which may delay or limit the disposition of collateral.

5. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (October 31, 2012–2015), and for the period ended April 30, 2016, and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

6. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

7. Securities Lending: To earn additional income, the fund lends its securities to qualified institutional borrowers. Security loans are subject to termination by the fund at any time, and are required to be secured at all times by collateral in an amount at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. Daily market fluctuations could cause the value of loaned securities to be more or less than the value of the collateral received. When this occurs, the collateral is adjusted and settled on the next business day. The fund further mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into securities lending transactions only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, and entering into master securities lending agreements with its counterparties. The master securities lending agreements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any loans with that borrower, determine the net amount owed, and sell or retain the collateral up to the net amount owed to the fund; however, such actions may be subject to legal proceedings. While collateral mitigates counterparty risk, in the absence of a default the fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability in the Statement of Net Assets for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Securities lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on invested cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan.

8. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes,

Windsor Fund

and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at April 30, 2016, or at any time during the period then ended.

9. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

B. The investment advisory firms Wellington Management Company LLP, and Pzena Investment Management, LLC, each provide investment advisory services to a portion of the fund for a fee calculated at an annual percentage rate of average net assets managed by the advisor. The basic fee of Wellington Management Company, LLP, is subject to quarterly adjustments based on performance relative to the S&P 500 Index for the preceding three years. The basic fee of Pzena Investment Management Company, LLC, is subject to quarterly adjustments based on performance relative to the Russell 1000 Value Index for the preceding three years.

Vanguard manages the cash reserves of the fund as described below.

For the six months ended April 30, 2016, the aggregate investment advisory fee represented an effective annual basic rate of 0.13% of the fund’s average net assets, before a decrease of $4,019,000 (0.05%) based on performance.

C. In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund corporate management, administrative, marketing, distribution, and cash management services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Net Assets.

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At April 30, 2016, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $1,389,000, representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.56% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

Windsor Fund

D. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of April 30, 2016, based on the inputs used to value them:


	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3
Investments	($000)	($000)	($000)
Common Stocks	16,186,173	163,209	—
Temporary Cash Investments	144,748	95,959	97,600
Futures Contracts—Liabilities¹	(812)	—	—
Total	16,330,109	259,168	97,600
1 Represents variation margin on the last day of the reporting period.

E. At April 30, 2016, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:


			($000)
			Aggregate
		Number of	Settlement	Unrealized
		Long (Short)	Value	Appreciation
Futures Contracts	Expiration	Contracts	Long (Short)	(Depreciation)
E-mini S&P 500 Index	June 2016	1,688	173,788	(906)

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

F. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes. These differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes. The fund’s tax-basis capital gains and losses are determined only at the end of each fiscal year.

During the six months ended April 30, 2016, the fund realized net foreign currency losses of $27,000, which decreased distributable net income for tax purposes; accordingly, such losses have been reclassified from accumulated net realized gains to undistributed net investment income.

Windsor Fund

At April 30, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $14,412,985,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $2,274,704,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $3,410,115,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $1,135,411,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

G. During the six months ended April 30, 2016, the fund purchased $2,496,057,000 of investment securities and sold $2,737,364,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.

H. Capital share transactions for each class of shares were:


	Six Months Ended		Year Ended

I. Management has determined that no material events or transactions occurred subsequent to April 30, 2016, that would require recognition or disclosure in these financial statements.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund.

A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

• Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The ”Ending Account Value“ shown is derived from the fund‘s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.

To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading ”Expenses Paid During Period.“

• Based on hypothetical 5% yearly return. This section is intended to help you compare your fund‘s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case—because the return used is not the fund’s actual return—the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect transaction costs incurred by the fund for buying and selling securities. Further, the expenses do not include any purchase, redemption, or account service fees described in the fund prospectus. If such fees were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not carry a “sales load.”

The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.

You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to your fund’s current prospectus.


Six Months Ended April 30, 2016
	Beginning	Ending	Expenses
	Account Value	Account Value	Paid During
Windsor Fund	10/31/2015	4/30/2016	Period
Based on Actual Fund Return
Investor Shares	$1,000.00	$978.15	$1.52
Admiral Shares	1,000.00	978.65	1.03
Based on Hypothetical 5% Yearly Return
Investor Shares	$1,000.00	$1,023.32	$1.56
Admiral Shares	1,000.00	1,023.82	1.06

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The fund’s annualized six-month expense ratios for that
period are 0.31% for Investor Shares and 0.21% for Admiral Shares. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the
annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent
six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (182/366).

Trustees Approve Advisory Arrangements

The board of trustees of Vanguard Windsor Fund has renewed the fund’s investment advisory arrangements with Pzena Investment Management, LLC (Pzena), and Wellington Management Company LLP (Wellington Management). The board determined that renewing the fund’s advisory arrangements was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.

The board based its decision upon an evaluation of each advisor’s investment staff, portfolio management process, and performance. The trustees considered the factors discussed below, among others. However, no single factor determined whether the board approved the arrangements. Rather, it was the totality of the circumstances that drove the board’s decision.

Nature, extent, and quality of services

The board reviewed the quality of the fund’s investment management services over both the short and long term and took into account the organizational depth and stability of each advisor. The board considered the following:

Pzena. Founded in 1995, Pzena is a global investment management firm that employs a classic value investment approach. Pzena seeks to buy good businesses at low prices, focusing exclusively on companies that are underperforming their historically demonstrated earnings power. Pzena’s research team conducts intensive fundamental research, buying companies only when the problems are judged to be temporary, management has a viable strategy to generate earnings recovery, and there is meaningful downside protection in case earnings do not recover. Pzena has advised a portion of the fund since 2012.

Wellington Management. Founded in 1928, Wellington Management is among the nation’s oldest and most respected institutional investment managers. Using a bottom-up, fundamentally-driven approach, Wellington Management invests in solid companies whose current fundamentals are depressed relative to longer-term earnings potential. The advisor has the ability to seek undervalued stocks across the capitalization spectrum. The investment team has the support of Wellington Management’s Global Industry Analysts in conducting its research-intensive approach. Wellington Management has advised the fund since its inception in 1958.

The board concluded that each advisor’s experience, stability, depth, and performance, among other factors, warranted continuation of the advisory arrangements.

Investment performance

The board considered the short- and long-term performance of the fund and each advisor, including any periods of outperformance or underperformance relative to a benchmark index and peer group. The board concluded that the performance was such that the advisory arrangements should continue. Information about the fund’s most recent performance can be found in the Performance Summary section of this report.

Cost

The board concluded that the fund’s expense ratio was well below the average expense ratio charged by funds in its peer group and that the fund’s advisory fee rate was also well below the peer-group average. Information about the fund’s expenses appears in the About Your Fund’s Expenses section of this report as well as in the Financial Statements section, which also includes information about the fund’s advisory fee rate.

The board did not consider profitability of Pzena or Wellington Management in determining whether to approve the advisory fees, because the firms are independent of Vanguard and the advisory fees are the result of arm’s length negotiations.

The benefit of economies of scale

The board concluded that the fund’s shareholders will benefit from economies of scale because of breakpoints in the advisory fee schedules for Pzena and Wellington Management. The breakpoints reduce the effective rate of the fees as the fund’s assets managed by each advisor increase.

The board will consider whether to renew the advisory arrangements again after a one-year period.

Glossary

30-Day SEC Yield. A fund’s 30-day SEC yield is derived using a formula specified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Under the formula, data related to the fund’s security holdings in the previous 30 days are used to calculate the fund’s hypothetical net income for that period, which is then annualized and divided by the fund’s estimated average net assets over the calculation period. For the purposes of this calculation, a security’s income is based on its current market yield to maturity (for bonds), its actual income (for asset-backed securities), or its projected dividend yield (for stocks). Because the SEC yield represents hypothetical annualized income, it will differ—at times significantly—from the fund’s actual experience. As a result, the fund’s income distributions may be higher or lower than implied by the SEC yield.

Beta. A measure of the magnitude of a fund’s past share-price fluctuations in relation to the ups and downs of a given market index. The index is assigned a beta of 1.00. Compared with a given index, a fund with a beta of 1.20 typically would have seen its share price rise or fall by 12% when the index rose or fell by 10%. For this report, beta is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index. Note that a fund’s beta should be reviewed in conjunction with its R-squared (see definition). The lower the R-squared, the less correlation there is between the fund and the index, and the less reliable beta is as an indicator of volatility.

Dividend Yield. Dividend income earned by stocks, expressed as a percentage of the aggregate market value (or of net asset value, for a fund). The yield is determined by dividing the amount of the annual dividends by the aggregate value (or net asset value) at the end of the period. For a fund, the dividend yield is based solely on stock holdings and does not include any income produced by other investments.

Earnings Growth Rate. The average annual rate of growth in earnings over the past five years for the stocks now in a fund.

Equity Exposure. A measure that reflects a fund’s investments in stocks and stock futures. Any holdings in short-term reserves are excluded.

Expense Ratio. A fund’s total annual operating expenses expressed as a percentage of the fund’s average net assets. The expense ratio includes management and administrative expenses, but does not include the transaction costs of buying and selling portfolio securities.

Foreign Holdings. The percentage of a fund represented by securities or depositary receipts of companies based outside the United States.

Inception Date. The date on which the assets of a fund (or one of its share classes) are first invested in accordance with the fund’s investment objective. For funds with a subscription period, the inception date is the day after that period ends. Investment performance is measured from the inception date.

Median Market Cap. An indicator of the size of companies in which a fund invests; the midpoint of market capitalization (market price x shares outstanding) of a fund’s stocks, weighted by the proportion of the fund’s assets invested in each stock. Stocks representing half of the fund’s assets have market capitalizations above the median, and the rest are below it.

Price/Book Ratio. The share price of a stock divided by its net worth, or book value, per share. For a fund, the weighted average price/book ratio of the stocks it holds.

Price/Earnings Ratio. The ratio of a stock’s current price to its per-share earnings over the past year. For a fund, the weighted average P/E of the stocks it holds. P/E is an indicator of market expectations about corporate prospects; the higher the P/E, the greater the expectations for a company’s future growth.

R-Squared. A measure of how much of a fund’s past returns can be explained by the returns from the market in general, as measured by a given index. If a fund’s total returns were precisely synchronized with an index’s returns, its R-squared would be 1.00. If the fund’s returns bore no relationship to the index’s returns, its R-squared would be 0. For this report, R-squared is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index.

Return on Equity. The annual average rate of return generated by a company during the past five years for each dollar of shareholder’s equity (net income divided by shareholder’s equity). For a fund, the weighted average return on equity for the companies whose stocks it holds.

Short-Term Reserves. The percentage of a fund invested in highly liquid, short-term securities that can be readily converted to cash.

Turnover Rate. An indication of the fund’s trading activity. Funds with high turnover rates incur higher transaction costs and may be more likely to distribute capital gains (which may be taxable to investors). The turnover rate excludes in-kind transactions, which have minimal impact on costs.

The People Who Govern Your Fund

The trustees of your mutual fund are there to see that the fund is operated and managed in your best interests since, as a shareholder, you are a part owner of the fund. Your fund’s trustees also serve on the board of directors of The Vanguard Group, Inc., which is owned by the Vanguard funds and provides services to them on an at-cost basis.

A majority of Vanguard’s board members are independent, meaning that they have no affiliation with Vanguard or the funds they oversee, apart from the sizable personal investments they have made as private individuals. The independent board members have distinguished backgrounds in business, academia, and public service. Each of the trustees and executive officers oversees 198 Vanguard funds.

The following table provides information for each trustee and executive officer of the fund. More information about the trustees is in the Statement of Additional Information, which can be obtained, without charge, by contacting Vanguard at 800-662-7447, or online at vanguard.com.

Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholder,

For the six months ended April 30, 2016, Vanguard Windsor II Fund’s return was virtually flat, compared with an advance of nearly 2% for its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index. The fund finished slightly ahead of the –0.36% average result of its large-capitalization value peer funds.

The Windsor II Fund logged negative returns in four of the ten industry sectors, with financial stocks weighing most heavily on performance. The fund’s industrial and consumer staples stocks performed well, though.

U.S. stocks traveled a rocky road, finishing the period about even

The broad U.S. stock market delivered flat returns for a half year marked by inconsistency, sharp declines, and even sharper rallies.

After struggling during the first four months of the period, U.S. stocks rebounded in the final two. Most of the surge came in March as investors cheered the Federal Reserve’s indication that it would scale back its plan for interest rate hikes in 2016. Continued aggressive stimulus by central bankers in Europe and Asia and a recovery in oil prices also helped.

Bonds have proved attractive with help from the Fed

The broad U.S. bond market returned 2.82% for the half year. After retreating in November and December, the bond market recorded positive results for each of the next four months. It also received a boost from the Fed’s cautious approach to raising short-term interest rates.

The yield of the 10-year U.S. Treasury note closed at 1.83% at the end of April, down from 2.17% six months earlier. (Bond prices and yields move in opposite directions.)

Even though the Fed raised short-term interest rates a quarter percentage point in December, the target rate of 0.25%–0.5% is still very low historically, and it restrained returns for money market funds and savings accounts.

International bond markets (as measured by the Barclays Global Aggregate Index ex USD) returned 8.72%. In a reversal from the trend of recent years, foreign currencies strengthened against the dollar, helping international bonds. Even without this currency benefit, however, international bond returns were solid.

The struggling financial sector limited the fund’s performance

In contrast to the previous reporting period––the 12 months ended October 31, 2015––value stocks took the lead from

growth, although neither style distinguished itself much in a zigzagging market. While its style of investing seemed to be in favor, the Windsor II Fund didn’t fully capitalize on value stocks’ modest rise.

Of course, six months is just a snapshot in time and doesn’t necessarily represent a fund’s long-term record. In its more than 30 years of existence, the Windsor II Fund has earned a reputation for identifying well-managed, quality companies that are not fully valued by the market. This approach results in a portfolio made up of the stocks of companies that often must overcome short-term obstacles in order to fulfill their long-term promise.

All five of the Windsor II Fund’s advisors use a bottom-up approach, meaning they consider attractive companies selling at discounted prices rather than the stock market’s direction or the economy’s health. The advisors also use refined strategies to filter out stocks that don’t have strong long-term prospects.

Over the period under review, the Windsor II Fund was hurt most by financial stocks, its largest sector holding. Low interest rates and the more rigorous regulatory environment have been challenges. While no area of the sector offered a great sanctuary, much of the weakness came from major diversified banks. Consumer finance firms also struggled.

Do U.S.-based multinationals provide enough global diversification?

Some investors believe that their portfolios get enough exposure to international stocks

through their holdings in large-capitalization, multinational U.S. companies such as the ones

represented in the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index. After all, those firms generated almost half

of their total sales outside the United States in 2014.*

However, international exposure based only on a broad index of U.S.-based companies would

be patchy at best. The near-even split of domestic and foreign sales for S&P 500 companies

is an average; when you look at individual sectors, a different picture emerges. Information

technology firms earned the highest percentage of sales abroad (almost 60% in 2014). Utilities

and telecommunication services, which tend to operate regionally or nationally, generated the

least overseas revenue.

As the chart below shows, such a portfolio would also differ significantly from a broadly

diversified global portfolio in some sector weightings. It would, for example, have more

exposure to IT and health care stocks and considerably less to materials and financials.

The bottom line: Large-cap U.S. stocks can give you a degree of exposure to international

economic and market forces, but not to the same extent as a combination of both U.S. and

non-U.S. stocks.

S&P 500 Index sector weightings vary from those of global stocks

(Differences in percentage points)

Notes: Data are 12-month-average sector weightings as of March 31, 2016. Global stocks are represented by the FTSE All-World Index.

Sources: Vanguard calculations, based on data from S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC and FTSE International Limited.

* All S&P 500 Index and sector revenue data are from S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC for 2014.

There are additional risks when investing outside the United States, including the possibility that returns will be hurt

by a decline in the value of foreign currencies or by unfavorable developments in a particular country or region.

The fund’s consumer discretionary, information technology, and energy stocks also were negative performers or underper-formers. Within consumer discretionary, manufacturers of automobiles and their components were noticeable laggards. The fund’s hardware stocks were a sore spot in the slumping technology industry. And while oil prices have bounced back a bit, they’ve been an albatross for most of the energy sector.

The Windsor II Fund did have some successes. Aerospace and defense companies carried the fund in the industrial sector. The fund’s consumer staples stocks also shone. While utilities was Windsor II’s top-performing sector, with returns of about 17%, the fund’s small exposure didn’t offer much help.

You can find more information on the fund’s positioning and performance in the Advisors’ Report that follows this letter.

Whether it’s index or active, low costs and talent matter

If you listen to some investing pundits, you might think index investing and actively managed investing are incompatible opposites. We at Vanguard don’t see it that way.

To us, it’s not index versus active. In fact, depending on your goals, it could well be index and active.

Our index and active funds share important traits. Both are low cost, and as their assets grow, we can take advantage of economies of scale by further reducing fund expense ratios. That allows you to keep more of your fund’s returns.

And low costs aren’t the whole story. Talent and experience are vital no matter a fund’s management style.

When it comes to indexing, portfolio managers in our Equity Index Group and Fixed Income Group have honed their expertise over decades. That expertise helps our index funds meet their objectives of closely tracking their benchmarks.

If you’d like to know more, see Keys to Improving the Odds of Active Management Success and The Case for Index-Fund Investing, available at vanguard.com/research.

As always, thank you for investing with Vanguard.

Sincerely,

Large-capitalization value stocks were up roughly 2% during the six months under review, but the ride was anything but smooth. After a relatively benign end to 2015, investors once again experienced heightened market volatility at the start of 2016 on the back of weakening commodity prices, widening credit spreads, and concerns regarding emerging-market economies. After the first six weeks, however, the markets began to stabilize. Crude oil rallied off its lows, which had represented a decline of about 75% from the summer of 2014. Confirming the stabilization, credit spreads are now tighter than when the year began, and emerging-market economies seem to be regaining their footing for the time being.

Market volatility presented several new investment opportunities. We added State Street to the fund as investors shunned capital markets stocks, which led to inexpensive valuations. We also added Express Scripts, Teva Pharmaceuticals, and Cardinal Health as the health care sector sold off on political concerns, as well as company-specific issues that we believe are temporary.

Portfolio performance was helped markedly by tobacco companies, led by Philip Morris International. Raytheon, a defense contractor, was also a large boost to performance. Telecommunication services helped the numbers as well, led by Verizon. Energy holdings were a detractor, led by poor performance by ConocoPhillips and refiners Marathon Petroleum and Phillips 66.

The S&P 500 Index rose 0.43% during the last six months. The modest gains masked a particularly volatile period: Markets fell over 10% on concerns about the Chinese economy and commodity price declines. However, markets rallied toward the end of the period as the Federal Reserve lowered its forecast for 2016 interest rate increases. Positive U.S. economic data and a rebound in oil prices also encouraged investors.

Fourth-quarter annualized U.S. gross domestic product growth was revised upward to 1.4%, surpassing consensus expectations, but an initial read of 0.5% growth for the first quarter of 2016 disappointed. Employment data were generally solid during the period as wage growth remained strong and the unemployment rate fell to a post-recession low of 4.9% in February.

The portfolio benefited from stock selection in the health care sector. Top contributors were Zoetis and Baxalta. We sold Baxalta in March. Stock selection in the industrial sector also helped returns. Top contributors included Honeywell and Copart.

Stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector detracted from performance. The largest detractors included Advance Auto Parts and Norwegian Cruise Line. Stock selection in the information technology sector also hurt returns. The largest detractors included Apple and eBay.

We continue to see that certain market segments offer uncommon valuation opportunities while other segments appear overvalued. Fear that a slowdown in China will spill over into developed economies has led the market to shun most cyclical sectors in favor of non-cyclicals. The paradox is that when investors flock to the perceived safety of non-cyclicals, valuations become more stretched, which makes the stocks risky. In today’s market we find a disproportionate number of attractive risk-adjusted valuation opportunities in market segments that have been shunned.

The portfolio underperformed the Russell 1000 Value Index over the six-month period. Stocks trading at steep valuation discounts and stocks trading at steep valuation premiums both lagged “middle of the road” stocks. We are overweight stocks trading at valuation discounts; the portfolio’s average weight to stocks trading at less than book value was 31% compared with 9% for the index, which detracted considerably from relative performance. Russell 1000 Value stocks trading at less than 1.0 times book value declined 5.7% over the period compared with 1.9% for the entire index.

Stock selection in financials and energy also hurt performance over the period. Positive stock selection in information technology and industrials were the largest contributors to relative performance. The largest detractors from relative performance were Cobalt, AIG, and Sanofi; the largest contributors to relative performance were Cummins, Hewlett-Packard, and Hess.

Our portfolio is positioned to benefit from sustained economic growth as about 75% of holdings are pro-cyclical. The Federal

Reserve’s interest rate normalization will aid our financial sector holdings; we expect normalization to be prompted by a rise in inflation before the end of 2016. The portfolio also has important investments predicated on technology-driven innovation in the pharmaceutical, semiconductor, and computing industries, which are expected to drive faster growth.

Investments in the energy industry remain small. However, they are focused on U.S. natural gas, a segment for which we see exceptional opportunity. Investment returns trailed the benchmark Russell 1000 Value Index slightly this year primarily because of our investments in financials. Much of this underperformance can be traced to suppression of interest rates by central banks, which, as noted, we believe will prove transitory.

For the half year, U.S. equities remained flat after recovering from a steep decline in early January. The fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index, returned 1.93%. As measured by other Russell indexes, the broad U.S. equity market returned 0.06%, large-capitalization stocks 0.22%, and small-caps –1.90%. Value-oriented equities returned 1.87%, surpassing the –1.64% return of growth stocks.

The management decisions and quality components of our fundamentally based model helped relative performance, while the valuation and sentiment components did not perform as expected. The model’s effectiveness over the semiannual period across sectors was mixed. We produced positive stock selection results in five of the ten sectors in the benchmark, benefiting the most from strong stock selection within financials, energy, and information technology. Selections within industrials, materials, and health care detracted from our relative performance.

Among individual stocks, the largest contributors came from overweight positions in Chesapeake Energy and Southwestern Energy, and an underweight position in Kinder Morgan. The portfolio’s relative performance also benefited from avoiding Williams Cos., which declined sharply during the period. Unfortunately, we could not avoid all poorly performing stocks. An overweight position in Santander Consumer USA and an underweight position in AT&T detracted from our relative performance.

Windsor II Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Windsor II Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers two classes of shares: Investor Shares and Admiral Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria.

Windsor II Fund

4. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (October 31, 2012–2015), and for the period ended April 30, 2016, and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

5. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

6. Securities Lending: To earn additional income, the fund lends its securities to qualified institutional borrowers. Security loans are subject to termination by the fund at any time, and are required to be secured at all times by collateral in an amount at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. Daily market fluctuations could cause the value of loaned securities to be more or less than the value of the collateral received. When this occurs, the collateral is adjusted and settled on the next business day. The fund further mitigates its counterparty risk by entering into securities lending transactions only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial strength, and entering into master securities lending agreements with its counterparties. The master securities lending agreements provide that, in the event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any loans with that borrower, determine the net amount owed, and sell or retain the collateral up to the net amount owed to the fund; however, such actions may be subject to legal proceedings. While collateral mitigates counterparty risk, in the absence of a default the fund may experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability in the Statement of Net Assets for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Securities lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on invested cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan.

7. Credit Facility: The fund and certain other funds managed by The Vanguard Group (“Vanguard”) participate in a $3.1 billion committed credit facility provided by a syndicate of lenders pursuant to a credit agreement that may be renewed annually; each fund is individually liable for its borrowings, if any, under the credit facility. Borrowings may be utilized for temporary and emergency purposes, and are subject to the fund’s regulatory and contractual borrowing restrictions. The participating funds are charged administrative fees and an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the undrawn amount of the facility; these fees are allocated to the funds based on a method approved by the fund’s board of trustees and included in Management and Administrative expenses on the fund’s Statement of Operations. Any borrowings under this facility bear interest at a rate based upon the higher of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, federal funds effective rate, or overnight bank funding rate plus an agreed-upon spread.

The fund had no borrowings outstanding at April 30, 2016, or at any time during the period then ended.

Windsor II Fund

8. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

B. The investment advisory firms Barrow, Hanley, Mewhinney & Strauss, LLC; Lazard Asset Management LLC; Hotchkis and Wiley Capital Management, LLC; and Sanders Capital, LLC, each provide investment advisory services to a portion of the fund for a fee calculated at an annual percentage rate of average net assets managed by the advisor. The basic fee of Barrow, Hanley, Mewhinney & Strauss, LLC, is subject to quarterly adjustments based on performance relative to the MSCI US Prime Market 750 Index for the preceding three years. The basic fee of Lazard Asset Management LLC is subject to quarterly adjustments based on performance relative to the S&P 500 Index for the preceding three years. The basic fee of Hotchkis and Wiley Capital Management, LLC, is subject to quarterly adjustments based on performance relative to the MSCI US Investable Market 2500 Index for the preceding three years. The basic fee of Sanders Capital, LLC, is subject to quarterly adjustments based on performance relative to the Russell 3000 Index for the preceding five years.

Vanguard provides investment advisory services to a portion of the fund as described below; the fund paid Vanguard advisory fees of $177,000 for the six months ended April 30, 2016.

For the six months ended April 30, 2016, the aggregate investment advisory fee paid to all advisors represented an effective annual basic rate of 0.15% of the fund’s average net assets, before a decrease of $7,620,000 (-0.03%) based on performance.

C. In accordance with the terms of a Funds’ Service Agreement (the “FSA”) between Vanguard and the fund, Vanguard furnishes to the fund investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services at Vanguard’s cost of operations (as defined by the FSA). These costs of operations are allocated to the fund based on methods and guidelines approved by the board of trustees. Vanguard does not require reimbursement in the current period for certain costs of operations (such as deferred compensation/benefits and risk/insurance costs); the fund’s liability for these costs of operations is included in Payables to Vanguard on the Statement of Net Assets.

Upon the request of Vanguard, the fund may invest up to 0.40% of its net assets as capital in Vanguard. At April 30, 2016, the fund had contributed to Vanguard capital in the amount of $3,750,000, representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 1.50% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and employees, respectively, of Vanguard.

D. The fund has asked its investment advisors to direct certain security trades, subject to obtaining the best price and execution, to brokers who have agreed to rebate to the fund part of the commissions generated. Such rebates are used solely to reduce the fund’s management and administrative expenses. For the six months ended April 30, 2016, these arrangements reduced the fund’s expenses by $799,000 (an annual rate of 0.00% of average net assets).

Windsor II Fund

E. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of April 30, 2016, based on the inputs used to value them:


	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3
Investments	($000)	($000)	($000)
Common Stocks	43,909,571	643,955	—
Temporary Cash Investments	1,001,033	32,965	—
Futures Contracts—Liabilities¹	(2,169)	—	—
Total	44,908,435	676,920	—
1 Represents variation margin on the last day of the reporting period.

F. At April 30, 2016, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:


			($000)
			Aggregate
		Number of	Settlement	Unrealized
		Long (Short)	Value	Appreciation
Futures Contracts	Expiration	Contracts	Long (Short)	(Depreciation)
E-mini S&P 500 Index	June 2016	3,185	327,912	(3,419)

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

G. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes. These differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes. The fund’s tax-basis capital gains and losses are determined only at the end of each fiscal year.

During the six months ended April 30, 2016, the fund realized net foreign currency gains of $69,000, which increased distributable net income for tax purposes; accordingly, such gains have been reclassified from accumulated net realized gains to undistributed net investment income.

Windsor II Fund

At April 30, 2016, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $36,063,030,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $9,524,494,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $12,656,654,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $3,132,160,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

H. During the six months ended April 30, 2016, the fund purchased $7,296,893,000 of investment securities and sold $7,512,104,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.

J. Certain of the fund’s investments are in companies that are considered to be affiliated companies of the fund because the fund owns more than 5% of the outstanding voting securities of the company or the issuer is another member of The Vanguard Group. Transactions during the period in securities of these companies were as follows:


		Current Period Transactions

K. Management has determined that no material events or transactions occurred subsequent to April 30, 2016, that would require recognition or disclosure in these financial statements.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

• Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The ”Ending Account Value“ shown is derived from the fund‘s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.

• Based on hypothetical 5% yearly return. This section is intended to help you compare your fund‘s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case—because the return used is not the fund’s actual return—the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.


Six Months Ended April 30, 2016
	Beginning	Ending	Expenses
	Account Value	Account Value	Paid During
Windsor II Fund	10/31/2015	4/30/2016	Period
Based on Actual Fund Return
Investor Shares	$1,000.00	$999.87	$1.64
Admiral Shares	1,000.00	1,000.18	1.24
Based on Hypothetical 5% Yearly Return
Investor Shares	$1,000.00	$1,023.22	$1.66
Admiral Shares	1,000.00	1,023.62	1.26

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The fund’s annualized six-month expense ratios for that
period are 0.33% for Investor Shares and 0.25% for Admiral Shares. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the
annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent
six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period (182/366).

Trustees Approve Advisory Arrangements

The board of trustees of Vanguard Windsor II Fund has renewed the fund’s investment advisory arrangements with Barrow, Hanley, Mewhinney & Strauss, LLC (Barrow Hanley); Hotchkis and Wiley Capital Management, LLC (Hotchkis and Wiley); Lazard Asset Management LLC (Lazard); Sanders Capital, LLC (Sanders Capital); and The Vanguard Group, Inc. (Vanguard)—through its Quantitative Equity Group. The board determined that renewing the fund’s advisory arrangements was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.

Nature, extent, and quality of services

The board reviewed the quality of the fund’s investment management services over both the short and long term, and took into account the organizational depth and stability of each advisor. The board considered the following:

Barrow Hanley. Founded in 1979, Barrow Hanley is known for its commitment to value investing. A subsidiary of Old Mutual Asset Managers, Barrow Hanley remains independently managed. Using fundamental research, Barrow Hanley seeks to make long-term investments in quality or improving businesses that are undervalued due to short-term disappointments. The firm seeks to construct a portfolio with strict adherence to valuation factors, with below-average price/earnings and price/book value ratios, and above-average current yields. Barrow Hanley has advised the fund since the fund’s inception in 1985.

Hotchkis and Wiley. Founded in 1980, Hotchkis and Wiley is a value-oriented firm that manages various large-, mid-, and small-cap portfolios. Hotchkis and Wiley invests in companies where it believes that the present value of future cash flows exceeds the market price. The firm believes that the market frequently undervalues companies due to the extrapolation of current trends, while capital flows usually cause a company’s returns and profitability to normalize over the long term. Hotchkis and Wiley seeks to identify these companies with a disciplined, bottom-up research process. The portfolio managers leverage the support of a broad analyst team, which is organized into sector teams in an effort to better understand the impact that industry dynamics and macro-economic risk factors might have on individual companies. Hotchkis and Wiley has managed a portion of the fund since 2003.

Lazard. Lazard provides investment management services for clients around the world in a variety of investment mandates, including international equities, domestic equities, and fixed income securities. The investment team at Lazard employs a relative value, bottom-up stock-selection process to identify stocks with sustainable financial productivity and attractive valuations. Utilizing scenario analysis, the team seeks to understand the durability and future direction of financial productivity and valuation. Lazard is a subsidiary of Lazard Freres & Co. LLC and has managed a portion of the fund since 2007.

Sanders Capital. Founded in 2009, Sanders Capital employs a traditional bottom-up, fundamental research-driven approach to identify securities that are undervalued relative to their expected total return. The portfolio managers are supported by a well-credentialed and experienced sector analyst team, in addition to a quantitative research analyst. Sanders Capital has managed a portion of the fund since 2010.

Vanguard. Vanguard has been managing investments for more than three decades. The Quantitative Equity Group adheres to a sound, disciplined investment management process; the team has considerable experience, stability, and depth. Vanguard has managed a portion of the fund since 1991.

The board concluded that each advisor’s experience, stability, depth, and performance, among other factors, warranted continuation of the advisory arrangements.

Investment performance

Cost

The board did not consider profitability of Barrow Hanley, Hotchkis and Wiley, Lazard, or Sanders Capital in determining whether to approve the advisory fees, because the firms are independent of Vanguard and the advisory fees are the result of arm’s-length negotiations. The board does not conduct a profitability analysis of Vanguard because of Vanguard’s unique “at-cost” structure. Unlike most other mutual fund management companies, Vanguard is owned by the funds it oversees, and produces “profits” only in the form of reduced expenses for fund shareholders.

The benefit of economies of scale

The board concluded that the fund’s shareholders benefit from economies of scale because of breakpoints in the advisory fee schedules for Barrow Hanley, Hotchkis and Wiley, Lazard, and Sanders Capital. The breakpoints reduce the effective rate of the fees as the fund’s assets managed by each advisor increase.

The board also concluded that the fund’s at-cost arrangement with Vanguard ensures that the fund will realize economies of scale as it grows, with the cost to shareholders declining as the fund’s assets managed by Vanguard increase.

The board will consider whether to renew the advisory arrangements again after a one-year period.

Glossary

30-Day SEC Yield. A fund’s 30-day SEC yield is derived using a formula specified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Under the formula, data related to the fund’s security holdings in the previous 30 days are used to calculate the fund’s hypothetical net income for that period, which is then annualized and divided by the fund’s estimated average net assets over the calculation period. For the purposes of this calculation, a security’s income is based on its current market yield to maturity (for bonds), its actual income (for asset-backed securities), or its projected dividend yield (for stocks). Because the SEC yield represents hypothetical annualized income, it will differ—at times significantly—from the fund’s actual experience. As a result, the fund’s income distributions may be higher or lower than implied by the SEC yield.

Earnings Growth Rate. The average annual rate of growth in earnings over the past five years for the stocks now in a fund.

Equity Exposure. A measure that reflects a fund’s investments in stocks and stock futures. Any holdings in short-term reserves are excluded.

Foreign Holdings. The percentage of a fund represented by securities or depositary receipts of companies based outside the United States.

Median Market Cap. An indicator of the size of companies in which a fund invests; the midpoint of market capitalization (market price x shares outstanding) of a fund’s stocks, weighted by the proportion of the fund’s assets invested in each stock. Stocks representing half of the fund’s assets have market capitalizations above the median, and the rest are below it.

Price/Book Ratio. The share price of a stock divided by its net worth, or book value, per share. For a fund, the weighted average price/book ratio of the stocks it holds.

Price/Earnings Ratio. The ratio of a stock’s current price to its per-share earnings over the past year. For a fund, the weighted average P/E of the stocks it holds. P/E is an indicator of market expectations about corporate prospects; the higher the P/E, the greater the expectations for a company’s future growth.

Short-Term Reserves. The percentage of a fund invested in highly liquid, short-term securities that can be readily converted to cash.
