Panoramic view of Farrell Hall Living Room

In yesterday’s Daily Deac, I talked about the renovation of Reynolds Gym and my hunch that it will become a hub for students on campus in the same way that the Farrell Hall Living Room is a hub. If you have not made it in […]


Sneak peek inside Reynolds Gym

All, for the rest of this week we’re going to be light on Daily Deac content, as I have tons on my plate.  Today I went on a hardhat tour of the Reynolds Gym construction area.  Let me tell you, the stuff they are doing […]


Sleepin Deacon

If your Deacs are up on the Quad today, they will see a bunch of our Thrive leaves stuck into the ground at regular intervals.  Each of the leaves has information about sleep – the importance of sleep, sleep tips, and information about the Sleepin’ […]


A new week

Was up on the Quad around 11 am this morning.  Happily, it is a sunny day, but it is also pretty cold, low 40s.  Most of the students were bundled up in jackets and scarves and boots.  In weather like this, people walk quickly to […]


All kinds of news today

Today is a great news day on campus.  First: the question on so many of your minds, “When is Family Weekend?”  Family Weekend’s date has just been set as October 27-29, 2017. Family Weekend is planned and facilitated by the Office of Student Engagement.  It’s […]

Today we hear from Daily Deac readers!

Today we have a special surprise – a couple of submissions from Deac families.  The first is a picture from sunny downtown Los Angeles.  Many thanks to our P’20 Deac Dad from LA!  Look at those blue skies!  Happily we have sun today too. […]


Four Senses of the Benson Center Lobby

It has rained on and off for several days. So much so that Poteat Field, usually a place for intramural or pick-up soccer games or football games, has huge puddles on it.  My sense of the feeling on campus is everyone is sick of this […]


TEDx WakeForestU

Happy Black and Gold Friday, Deac families!  Yesterday I got my first peek at the lineup for the annual TEDx conference.  This is a student-run event and always a big hit. If you find you’ll be in Winston-Salem on Saturday, February 18th, you want to […]
