Five Senses of Zick’s

Last Thursday I spent a little bit of time in Zick’s, our pizza/pub games place in Poteat on the Quad.  I sat there long enough to take notes for a Five Senses post and then got tied up in something and didn’t post it.  Better […]


Gratitude Day – Wednesday 11/19

It is freezing, freezing, cold today, Deac families.  High of a frigid 36.  And while I know many of you are from colder climes than ours, already dealing with snow and superfrigid temperatures, let me go on record and say I much prefer the warmth. […]


Rainy, Wet, and Cold

This is not the trifecta that we were hoping for as we start the week.  It is cold, dreary, and rainy.  You can see it on the Quad Cam. Tomorrow is going to be worse – highs only in the mid-30s, and lows […]


Sacred Spaces

I took a very, very chilly walk this morning up to the center of campus.  Winter is coming, friends.  It is *cold* now.  In the 30s this morning, weak sunlight.  Definitely heavy jacket weather, scarf, gloves.  The weekend forecast appears to be frigid as […]

Lovefeast – and a Big Congrats

Deac families – we are a few weeks away from one of Wake Forest’s most cherished holiday traditions, the Lovefeast, but we have an opportunity to help you be a part of it.  For those who are not familiar with the Lovefeast, you […]


What To Do This Weekend

It’s the end of a long week, and there are many things your students can do on campus (as well as nearby) to make it a great weekend.  Here’s a sampling: – Hillel, our Jewish student organization, is hosting a Shabbat dinner – Go […]


Rain, Sun, and the Berlin Wall

When I woke up this morning, I was convinced it would be a miserable, wash out day for the Wake Forest-Clemson football game, which is tonight at 7:30.  It was rainy and misty all morning, up through lunchtime.  When I emerged from a noon meeting […]
