Upcoming events your Deac should consider

There is never a shortage of activity at Wake, and I would recommend the Events calendar to your Deacs if they are looking for a full list of things to do.  I’m going to point out just a few that are coming up soon. […]


A couple thoughts about spring schedules

While the formal rounds of registration have taken place, students still have the ability to tweak their schedules.  One of the questions I sometimes get from my advisees or other students is “the classes I wanted were full.  What do I do now?” My answer […]


Blustery Tuesday morning

Your Deacs woke up to grey skies and a lot of wind.  It’s supposed to rain today – it must have rained overnight, as the ground was wet.  Temps are closer to the 60s, so not as cold, which is a good thing. I […]
