Hidden gems

Hats off to our Women’s Golf Team. Duke prevailed in yesterday’s NCAA Championships, but our ladies are always winners. As you might imagine, campus is remarkably quiet without the students here. And parking? A breeze :) While we do keep the Daily Deac running during […]


The aftermath

The big news today is that Wake’s women’s golf team is in the NCAA Championships. There are several options for watching or following – view them here. Please send good vibes to our ladies! The Quad is now stripped of all the hints […]


Endings and beginnings

Here’s a little inside baseball kind of knowledge for you: the day after Commencement is fairly quiet on campus. A lot of people take PTO, and a lot of others who come to work feel pretty casual. As we end our time with the Class […]


Commencement!

Commencement is arguably the best day of the year (possible runner up is Move-in Day for new students). And today was a picture perfect – if hot – day. The morning started out really overcast, which was a blessing, because it kept us a little […]

Family Matters

Most of our students have departed campus (save for some seniors perhaps who did not go to post-exams at the beach). It feels empty without them, but in a week we will be celebrating one of the best days of the WFU year: Commencement. Dr. […]


Stormy weather

It was cloudy yesterday, and has been drizzly at times today. Here are a few pictures to give you a sense of it. Looks like tomorrow will be real and proper rain – and let’s get it all out of […]
