One Last Motivational Moment

Finals are wrapping up.  There’s today, and then one day more, tomorrow.  Because it is coming down to the wire, and students must be getting tired and weary, I was trying to think of motivational  or humorous pop culture pick me ups. Here’s what came […]


Finals Continue

Last night was the “Late Night Breakfast” – which is held in the Pit from 10pm-midnight.  Faculty and staff work alongside our ARAMARK/Campus Dining staff to serve breakfast to students.  We know our students are studying for finals and need a break – maybe some […]

Nothing makes me happier than to see Wake Forest recognized for good ideas and student-centered focus.  Today is a great example of that.  Inside Higher Ed has a story about our intrepid and innovative Z Smith Reynolds Library and the addition of the […]


Last Week of Classes

Set Your Calendars

Summer Session 2 has begun, and yesterday I saw a ton of people moving in (on a very hot and sunny day, I might add).  It is nice to see some students back on campus.  And that reminds me that there is an action item […]


Two More to Go

We’re coming to the end of our vacation-week series of Things to Look Forward to in fall 2014.  Semester’s end means finals, and while none of our students look forward to those, there is a light at the end of the tunnel, and it’s called […]


Graduation…Now What?

Today’s Daily Deac was written by John Montana, Associate Director for MA Enrollment Management in the Wake Forest University School of Business.  Before bringing you John’s words, let me make this brief editorial note.  This MA program he describes is a fantastic opportunity for students.  […]
