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 […]


Another very busy day

Super busy here, so a short Daily Deac again. First up, I goofed in yesterday’s Daily Deac re: Commencement ticket pick up. Pick up is today (Friday) and tomorrow (Saturday) from 9 am-4 pm in Reynolds Gym. Before we get to Commencement info, a […]


Getting close

Just a few days now until Commencement, which is very exciting. It’s also an incredibly busy time for us, so this will be a brief Daily Deac – and largely focused on our P’19s. Students will pick up their Commencement tickets tomorrow or Friday […]

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 […]


Sad news

We received the sad news last night that one of our WFU law students has passed away: “Ozioma (Ozi) Obi-Onuoha, a first-year law student from Raleigh, N.C., has died. We extend our heartfelt condolences to their family, fellow law students, faculty and staff who knew […]


Finals continue

It’s a beautiful day at Wake today. Sunny and low 80s. I had a bunch of meetings in the center of campus today and saw some students (and parents/families) who looked like they were in the process of moving out – carrying bags and boxes. […]
