A Fantastic Student Story

It’s Black and Gold Friday, Deac families – which means that I hope you are wearing some gold and/or black today to show your WFU spirit! And today’s Daily Deac dovetails off the idea of Black and Gold Friday.  It’s written by Peter Chawaga (’13), […]


A Sunday Afternoon on Campus

The Labor Day holiday is being observed on Monday for the Reynolda Campus staff, but faculty and students will still be hard at work.  I thought I’d tell you a little bit about what Sunday afternoon looked like on campus. I went over to campus […]


End of the First Week

This morning is gray and overcast and very, very humid.  The weather is supposed to improve as the day progresses and should end up near 90 degrees but not quite as humid.  And for our students there is reason to rejoice: it’s the end of […]


Following the Olympic Deacs

If you’re like me, you’re an Olympics junkie, thirstily drinking in all the coverage you can get.  And there are some very good reasons to be tuned in – and that is we sent eight Deacs off to London in the search for glory. You […]


It’s Camp Season

Summer session is progressing steadily.  And this week we welcomed in a new crop of students – most of them 13 and under, via Wake Forest summer camps.  Walking across campus yesterday, I saw tons of students on Poteat Field for soccer camp, and there […]

And on to the Weekend

It’s Friday on campus, Deac families, and for the second day in a row it has been unseasonably cool in the mornings.  There is virtually no humidity – rare for this point in June – and this morning as I came into the building the […]


Ending this Week, Looking to Next

We’re closing out on the last full week of classes, and ending this week on a good note.  After a couple of days of miserable rain and colder weather, today is going to be sunny, low 70s, and gorgeous. This morning as I was coming […]


Weekend Wrap Up

Another weekend gone, another week closer to the end of the semester.  It was stormy this weekend – on and off – and it was decidedly cooler yesterday.  This week should be somewhere between the 60s and 70s, hopefully nice for your students. Over the […]


Wrapping Up Before Spring Break

Break is just around the corner.  I have talked to a couple of students in the past few days and they are definitely ready.  If past history is any predictor of future trends, my guess is that we start to see a fair bit of […]
