In the coming weeks, the Daily Deac will feature the finalists for Senior Orations. Three students were chosen to read their Senior Oration during Founders’ Day Convocation. But all of the top ten orations are worth sharing, and we’ll publish one at a time. Today’s […]
I received an email the other day about a photo contest featuring one of our very own Deacs, senior Emily Jobe (’15) of Summerfield, NC. Emily was studying abroad last summer in China. She just happened to have her umbrella with her when her classmate (also […]
