A Road with a View

As Family Weekend is approaching, let me recommend one of my favorite fall traditions: viewing the glorious fall leaves on Reynolda Road.  This is something you will want to see when you are here, and you can encourage your students to take a walk or […]


Cheering Up with Deacon Greetings

Today is a better day on campus.  Quite windy but not as beastly rainy and foggy as it has been.  And in times like these – bad weather, midterms, papers, projects, other associated malaise – what your students might want is a bit of cheering […]


Dreary

It was a dreary weekend, particularly yesterday.  And today it is still dreary.  Not necessarily cold, but a near constant mist and you can feel the damp.  There was enough fog this morning that you could hardly see the outline of the spire of Wait […]


A Beautiful Friday

Today is a beautiful day.  Early this morning it was cool enough for it to feel nice and refreshing if you were walking on campus, but not so cool that you needed a jacket.  All across campus, the trees are noticeably changing from all green […]


Red Skies at Night

Most of the time when I’m gathering material for the Daily Deac, it is during normal work hours.  There’s obviously a lot that goes on after hours that I am not here to catch. Thankfully, I have some colleagues who can be my eyes and ears in […]


Various and Sundry Wednesday

Today’s Daily Deac is a little bit of everything.  Stay with us as we meander through various and sundry notes and observations. The weather is perfect today.  Sunny, nearly 80.  You’re warm if you stay in the sun, but you aren’t baking.  A walk across […]


The Dogly Deac

Today was evidently the final day for the Unity and Respect picture on the steps of Wait Chapel.  In each of the four weeks we’ve been doing this photo, more and more folks showed up.  If you follow Wake Forest University on Facebook, you […]


Seen and Heard Around Campus

It was a crisp fall weekend, Deac families.  Very cool temperatures in the mornings, warming up in the afternoon to the 60s or maybe even 70, but it definitely feels like fall is coming.  Now, that’s not to say we won’t be back up to […]


Still Riding the High

There are probably a good many members of our campus community who are waking up with tired legs or sore muscles after Hit the Bricks yesterday.  It’s a good tired.  Hopefully they are still riding the high of a great event with an even greater […]


Hit. The. Bricks.

Today is the big day.  Hit the Bricks is here and it is awesome!  If you check out the Quad Cam, the best place you can see students running is as they cross the front of Wait Chapel.  You can catch a glimpse on […]
