Message to families: An update on demonstrations and interim policy information

by Betsy Chapman

The following message was shared with the campus community this morning. We wanted to send it to parents and families so you are informed. An excerpt is below:

“Early this morning, the University provided notice to a small number of students remaining on Manchester Plaza that the demonstration was in violation of agreed-upon terms and violated University policy by failing to comply with the directions of University officials. These students were notified that they would be subject to interim suspension should they fail to follow instructions to immediately disperse. The students cooperated and Manchester Plaza is now clear.”

You can read the full message here.

Our Call Center will operate today from 8 a.m.-8 p.m. at 336-758-7500. If you have sent an email to Wake Forest about this situation, please know those are being forwarded to campus leadership. As this is a time of high email volume, we cannot guarantee an individual response.

If we have additional information, it will be shared at Family News and in the Daily Deac. Please be assured the safety of our students and campus remains our top priority.

Best,

Betsy Chapman, Ph.D. (’92, MA ’94)
Executive Director of Family Communications
