The snow has melted away for the most part, and life goes back to normal at Wake Forest. There are a couple of events coming up in the near term that merit a mention to you (in hope that your Deacs may take advantage). Tonight […]
Today is a snow day – classes are canceled due to the weather conditions. In reality we got maybe 2-3″ but the roads are very slick. I heard from two friends who were out and about lastnight that driving was treacherous, so urge your Deacs […]
It’s the end of a long, cold week – and it will get even colder before it’s done. The five day forecast is not particularly promising. Things can always shift, but it looks like we have the potential for snow/sleet/freezing rain on Monday. Your […]
