The Parent Programs office’s version of March Madness continues! We’re down to the Elite 8 in our March Madness – Waketology brackets. If you haven’t played along yet, it’s not too late to start! Vote from now until Friday at noon for your Final Four. […]
Yesterday I was walking back from the center of campus from a meeting, and to my surprise and delight I saw David Robinson, former NBA player extraordinaire, and his family on a campus tour. If I read the situation correctly, he was there with his […]
