Ways Parents and Families Can Help Wake Forest

There is no doubt in my mind that people connected to Wake Forest are among the most loyal in the world.  And no matter where you live or your connection to Wake Forest, you can help advance the mission of the University in big and […]

Wake Forest students are very much volunteer-oriented.  We have a large and thriving Volunteer Service Corps (VSC) that connects our students to service opportunities both on and off campus. Each week, I receive a digest of news from VSC.  Here’s some select highlights of things […]
