The Great Outdoors

After a couple of chilly days, we’re getting back up to the 70s and magnificent spring weather. And right now, there is no better place to be than outdoors on our beautiful campus.  You’ll see in the photos below that the trees and flowers are really spectacular. […]


Best Breakfasts in Winston-Salem

For any of you who might be traveling to campus in the coming weeks – either to spend Easter Weekend with your student, or for move-out in May, today’s Daily Deac is all about food.  Our provost, Rogan Kersh (’86), is guest blogging today to […]


Senior Orations – Buck Hinman (’16)

It’s the end of a glorious week on campus.  It’s been in the 70s and 80s all week, but to my dismay we’re about to hit a cold and possibly rainy stretch this weekend and early next week. Big, breaking news of the day: there […]


Much To Say – Even More to DO!

You are probably all tiring of the descriptions of the superb weather we are having here, but it bears repeating. It. Is. Glorious. Lots on the docket to talk about today, most of it coming in the vein of ‘items on the WFU smorgasboard’.  Urge […]


Been There, Done That. Tell Us What You Know.

It’s Almost Unfair How Nice the Weather Is

Senior Oration – Camry Wilborn (’16)

Today’s Spring Break coverage of Senior Orations features the work of Camry Wilborn (’16). ———— On the Wake Forest Admissions page there is a section referring to Pro Humanitate. It reads: It’s not about you. It’s about us, and the greater meaning of what it […]


Senior Oration – Leah Haynes (’16)

Today’s Senior Oration is entitled “Islands, Trees, and the Self-Directed Life,” by Leah Haynes. —————————– College can make you feel lonely. And so, when you first arrive, there’s a lot of emphasis put on finding your “place” here: clubs, organizations, the student-involvement fair, etc. This is […]
