Across Campus

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 […]


Failure

There have been a number of occasions in recent weeks where the discussion has turned to the high-achieving nature of our students, and how hard it is for many of them to experience disappointment. Most of our students arrive on campus already incredibly accomplished, having […]


Weekend Wrap Up

Another weekend gone, another week closer to the end of the semester.  It was stormy this weekend – on and off – and it was decidedly cooler yesterday.  This week should be somewhere between the 60s and 70s, hopefully nice for your students. Over the […]


Old Gold and Black

Happy Friday to our Deac families!  I hope wherever you are, you’re wearing some form of gold and/or black to show your school spirit! It’s another beautiful day here on campus, should reach the 80s, with lots of sun and everything in bloom.  Spring is […]

Break Time’s Over

The parking lots are full again, and as I drove onto campus this morning I saw some Wake Forest students out for their morning run, others who looked like they were headed to class. Break time’s over. And it is a depressing start back, given […]


Next Week at Wake Forest

The Provost’s Office does a terrific job each week in emailing faculty and administrators about the many and varied events that will be taking place on campus.  I wanted to share one such email with our Deac families, just so you can see the breadth […]
