The big reveal

Wake has an extensive art collection, which you can see in public-facing spaces like Reynolda Hall and the Benson University Center, among others. I vividly remember my freshman year at Wake, and I was meeting my parents in the Green Room of Reynolda Hall. At […]


Gratitude

More beautiful, sunny, warm weather today, which gives us ample reason to feel grateful. Speaking of gratitude, our Center for the Advancement of Teaching (CAT) has been hard at work on ways to recognize the extraordinary efforts of faculty and staff over the past […]


Meet A Deac
