The 2nd happiest day of the year

Greetings from Move-In central!  We’re embedded here all day in Benson 401 meeting and greeting parents and families.  And honestly y’all, it is SO MUCH FUN.  The happiest day on campus, other than Commencement day. So far it’s been a whirlwind of families coming and […]


Georgia O’Keeffe – Living Modern

One more pre-posted blog entry before Move-In :) This past Friday I went to the opening of the Georgia O’Keeffe – Living Modern exhibit at Reynolda House.  If you are coming to campus to move your student in, please consider buying tickets and seeing […]

It’s a small Wake Forest world

Another travel day for me, and looking forward to meeting all the new Wake Foresters at the Larchmont New Student Reception this evening.  It’s always a terrific event and I am really excited. To me it is always fascinating when you find unexpected Wake Forest […]
