The Iceman Cometh

Parents and families, if you have been following Wake Forest for a long time, you might be aware that a legend has just arrived back on our campus.  If you are new to Deacdom, allow me to offer a brief history lesson. Wake Forest basketball […]


Inside The Barn

Yesterday some colleagues and I got a tour of The Barn, the new on campus social space for student organizations.  I had only seen pictures of the outside, so getting inside was a real treat. There is a long, paved walk up to The […]


Picture of the Day: Farrell Hall Construction

There is considerable energy at the Farrell Hall construction site.  We still have tons of heavy equipment and a few small mountains of dirt and gravel.  Rome wasn’t built in a day, and neither will Farrell Hall.  But you can start to see the outline […]

Foggy Morning on Campus

It is pea soup fog on campus today.  So thick, in fact, that you can’t see the top of the Chapel from the front of Reynolda Hall.  That’s some fog. Even though you can’t see much, there are intriguing sounds on campus.  As I parked […]


National Black Theatre Festival

It’s a shame that only our summer school students are here right now, because next week the National Black Theatre Festival is coming to town next week. Here’s a snippet from their web site: “The 2011 National Black Theatre Festival will be held in […]
