The Pit Has Upped Its Game

Today’s Daily Deac is a field report from the Pit, our on-campus main cafeteria. I hadn’t made it down here at all this semester, and I’d just heard a presentation about some of the enhancements they’ve made, so I figured it was a good time […]


Misty Morning Fog

This morning on campus, Poteat field was covered in fog.  It was not that the air was foggy, it was that kind of fog where it is just mist hovering a few inches to a foot above the ground.  This is not a picture […]


Angles

Had the good fortune to be outside late morning. The weather could not be better. Very few clouds, warm in the sun (but not so warm you feel like you are going to sweat), coolish air.  There are some trees (mostly maples) whose leaves are […]

Post Family Weekend Wrap Up

Despite the really dreadful rainy weather, I hope that all our visiting Deac families had a good Family Weekend!  It was wonderful to see so many families on campus.  To those of you who braved the rain for the football game Saturday night, you were […]


Happy Family Weekend!

We are so excited to have parents and families here for Family Weekend (even if it turns out to be a wet one!)  I am planning to be in the Benson Center main lobby on Saturday morning at 8 am (before the President’s Welcome Address […]

So excited for Family Weekend to begin!  The Office of Student Engagement plans all Family Weekend activities, and they do a terrific job planning a massive spread of events and options.  When you check in for registration, give them a smile and a thanks – […]
