Meet A Deac Monday

Wake Forest prides itself on being a vibrant residential campus, and on-campus living plays a huge role in that. Today I am pleased to introduce you to Zach Blackmon of Residence Life and Housing. Full disclosure, Zach: you and I were in grad school together […]


“I’m just mad about saffron…”

Happy Friday, Deac families, and some great news today! A message went out this afternoon to students about our hopeful return to Yellow Operating Status starting March 12. You can read the whole message here, but I’ll pull out the BLUF (Bottom Line […]


Spring fever

I have a serious case of Spring Fever. Today is 65 and sunny, and the forecast says we’ll dip back into the 50s for the rest of this week, but much of next week looks like mid 60s to low 70s. I am here for […]


Nearly four years ago

Here’s a little blast from the past for our P’21 parents and families: nearly 4 years ago, as the Class of 2021 was being finalized, we got a snapshot of who our ’21 students were. This was from the starting point of their college experience […]

Happy Friday, Deac families. It’s grey and drizzly this morning as I write this; hoping for sunnier skies tomorrow. Big news today is our update on the governor easing some restrictions and the operational impact on campus; see message here. Will pull out the […]


Another great day

We’re on tap for another stellar day: high of 65. Tomorrow will be a bit of a bummer – high of 45 and rainy – but our temps are supposed to start edging up into the low 60s-70s this weekend. While there is some chance […]


Warm with gentle breezes

If yesterday was good, today is great. It’s 70, sunny, gorgeous. The kind of weather my P’92 mom refers to as “warm with gentle breezes.” In other words, perfect. Some of you responded to the pictures I posted yesterday about spring, so I found some […]


66

Today is sunny and a beautiful and balmy 66 degrees. Which is exactly the kind of February weather I dreamed of as a 17 year old living in Pennsylvania. Nothing like a little sunshine and the ability to be outdoors longer to improve everyone’s mood. […]
