Well, we’re back to business: campus is operating on normal schedule today. And hats off to Facilities, they have done a remarkable job in dealing with 14 inches of snow. The sidewalks and roads are clear and have salt to keep from freezing. I walked […]
UPDATE 4:49 pm – Wake will be open on regular schedule on Weds. Details: https://parents.wfu.edu/family-news/wake-forest-will-be-open-and-operate-on-regular-schedule-wednesday/ As I am sure you know from your students, classes were canceled for today.

We are closed today (Monday) because of the crazy snow storm we got over the weekend. At my house (about 3 miles from campus), we probably got 12 inches, with drifts up to 15-17″, because it was really windy. As I write this (9 am […]
