Tie a Yellow Ribbon Week

One of the things your students might see on campus this week is students, faculty, and/or staff wearing yellow ribbons. That’s because it is Tie a Yellow Ribbon Week, which is designed to raise awareness of – and show support for – survivors of rape […]


Birthdays

It’s a soggy Friday here at Mother So Dear. Rain, rain, go away! We had a question come in via another department – a Wake family member had wanted to know about doing something special for their Deac’s birthday. This particular family member knew that if […]


Housing Selection Q&A

Today’s Daily Deac is sharing information from Residence Life & Housing about the housing selection process for current students (note: no action needed for incoming first-years in the Class of 2023 – their process takes place in the summer). There is also good info in […]


And for those of you who don’t like rain…we have more rain

Still trying to catch up on all that I had been missing because of the flu. Valentine’s Day is tomorrow. If you haven’t had the chance to send your Deac a card, we have you covered. Use our Deacon Greetings. They are electronic cards […]


The Flu, UGH

I am [kindasorta] back following a dreadful bout of influenza. It hit me last Wednesday, then Mr. Daily Deac a couple of days later, and finally Class of ’27 (I am working from home while he battles it). This is a terrible, draining flu and […]


Letters So Dear

Today is a spectacular day. It is in the low 70s and sunny, and people’s spirits are high. I was walking on the south side of campus right around 11 am when classes were changing. There were tons of students sitting outdoors in the […]
