New Students and Parents

This blog post has been minimally edited to reflect 2017  information. There’s lots of activity over the summer for incoming students and their parents.  Roommate assignments will soon be sent out, and students have registered for the first 12.0 hours of their schedules.  They’ll now […]


Secrest Artists Series

Whether your student is getting ready to enter his or her first year, or is preparing to be a senior, one thing they must be sure to take advantage of in the 2012-13 school year is the Secrest Artists Series. The Secrest Artists […]


A Very Big Thank You from Us to You

The last week of June/first week of July is always a very busy time in the Parent Programs office, which is why we’ve been lighter than usual on the Daily Deac blog.  Our office organizes the New Student Receptions program, which brings together incoming students […]

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 […]


Meet a Deac – Tim Auman

As we continue with summer break, we have had the opportunity to visit with some of our terrific colleagues at Wake Forest and interview them.  There are so many wonderful people here who touch the lives of our students in profound and lifechanging ways, […]
