Today’s Daily Deac is about opportunities. And they are plentiful. I am on a Volunteer Service Corps listserv, and they have a number of ways your Deacs can get involved with organizations and do some good locally and globally. Note that some of the links […]
What a glorious, glorious weekend we just had. Yesterday was about 60-65 degrees and sunny – so wonderful after the snow. There is still some snow lingering, by the way, mostly on the side of the roads where it had been piled up by snow […]
It’s the end of the week, and time for another installment of our Meet a Deac feature. We have many Wake Forest families from the D.C. metro area, and we also have a lot of students who want to go to D.C. after graduation. Did you […]
