New and Newsworthy

This past Friday afternoon, we launched the Newstudents.wfu.edu website, which will be the place for the Class of 2019 (and their parents and families) to learn everything they need to know about beginning life at Wake Forest.  This site will have information added to […]


Dwindling Numbers and Gearing Up for Commencement

This Past Weekend

It would be hard to have improved on the weekend we just had.  Weatherwise we were in the low- to mid-70s, sunny, light breezes.  Perfect.  Some of our students hit the road for beach weekend, others stayed on campus.  I suspect some of them might […]

Bits and Pieces

Happy Wednesday, Deac families!  It was supposed to be rainy today but it has been a mix of sun and clouds and very warm.  There have been tons of campus tours of late.  Seems like every time I’m on the Quad, there are multiple tour groups […]
