It feels like just yesterday when your Deacs moved to campus. This semester has truly gone by in a flash. Things are exceedingly quiet on campus. I don’t think there are 20 cars outside of the section of the big parking lot closest to Alumni […]
We have a new website that went up today for Early Decision students (and those accepted Early Decision): https://earlydecision.newstudents.wfu.edu/. For any P’23 families whose students were admitted Early Decision already (or for those ED2 applicants awaiting a decision), this page is for you. A couple […]
For those in the Daily Deacdom with students returning from abroad, your Deac might be experiencing the post-abroad culture shock. They are no doubt happy to be home, but may be missing some of their favorite places/sights/foods from the country they just left. Or just […]
We have just about wrapped up this semester. Your Deacs have departed. The residence halls are closed. The parking lots are very much empty. There is still a bit of business to be done: final grades for fall semester classes are due on the 19th. […]

I have had some questions about why did we cancel, because it looks (from […]
We are closed today (Monday) because of the crazy snow storm we got over the weekend. At my house (about 3 miles from campus), we probably got 12 inches, with drifts up to 15-17″, because it was really windy. As I write this (9 am […]
Happy Friday, Deac families! I woke up this morning to a Winston-Salem Journal news story about the snow that is expected to hit us this weekend. It looks like we are going to get a heaping helping of snow. Like 8-12″ of snow. Holy macaroni! […]
