Daily Deac

Declaration of Independence – Part I

I’m off tonight to the Raleigh New Student Reception, and to the Wilmington, NC reception on Saturday. Hope I see some Daily Deacers there! One of the things we like to do at the Daily Deac is share articles about topics that might be of […]


Student Vehicle Registration Information

Happy Monday, Deac families! I am back from my road trip week. (For any of our Deac families who live in southwest South Dakota or northeast Wyoming, let me just say you live in amazing country and we loved visiting). Let’s keep with the travel […]


The history of the Manchester (Mag) Quad

As I continue my PTO, I am recycling an oldie but goodie from the Daily Deac archives. Enjoy! ————– All first year students are housed on the south part of campus.  We deliberately concentrate all the first years in one part of campus so […]

Quad Cam is down

Some of our Daily Deac faithful have noticed that the Quad Cam is down. Fear not, we are aware, and we are trying to get it resolved as fast as we can. I am lobbying as hard as I can for the fix, I promise. […]


Red, white, and blue at WFU

Tomorrow is the 4th of July, and we’ll be off for the holiday. So for today’s Daily Deac, I’m bringing you a little bit of red, white, and blue from WFU, and some fireworks. A little explanation needed on this first picture. This is […]
