It Doesn’t Smell Like Snow

It doesn’t smell like snow – and those of you in snow-prone areas know there is a distinct smell in the air when snow is coming – but boy it sure looks like it could snow at any minute.  Yesterday was sunny and nearly 70, […]


Post-Holiday Readers’ Choice Recipes

Your Deacs are back and today they get to enjoy a wonderfully warm and sunny day.  It’s nearly 70, sunny, and gorgeous.  And tomorrow it’s supposed to be in the low 40s.  That’s way too much weather zigging and zagging for my taste. Speaking of […]


Individuality

It’s almost break, and judging by the cars in the parking lots, some of the students appear to have gone home already, possibly because of the predictions for iffy mid-Atlantic weather on Wednesday.  We had a cold and rainy Sunday through most of the day, […]


Preparations

Yesterday I was up on the Quad and in the Benson Center and was witness to preparations for the holidays.  On the Quad, pine garlands were being placed on the arches and light poles.  A Christmas tree was being set up in front of […]


Five Senses of Zick’s

Last Thursday I spent a little bit of time in Zick’s, our pizza/pub games place in Poteat on the Quad.  I sat there long enough to take notes for a Five Senses post and then got tied up in something and didn’t post it.  Better […]


Rainy, Wet, and Cold

Deac families – we are a few weeks away from one of Wake Forest’s most cherished holiday traditions, the Lovefeast, but we have an opportunity to help you be a part of it.  For those who are not familiar with the Lovefeast, you […]


What To Do This Weekend

It’s the end of a long week, and there are many things your students can do on campus (as well as nearby) to make it a great weekend.  Here’s a sampling: – Hillel, our Jewish student organization, is hosting a Shabbat dinner – Go […]


Rain, Sun, and the Berlin Wall

When I woke up this morning, I was convinced it would be a miserable, wash out day for the Wake Forest-Clemson football game, which is tonight at 7:30.  It was rainy and misty all morning, up through lunchtime.  When I emerged from a noon meeting […]


Registration and More

Registration is this week.  It’s been going on for upperclassmen, and most first-years will begin tomorrow evening.  For those families who are new to the game:  please, please urge your students to check their Holds and Registration Status in WIN (under Virtual Campus).  If […]
