Wake Forest University Athletic teams are known as the Demon Deacons and compete in 16 NCAA Division I intercollegiate sports. Wake Forest is also a founding member of the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC).[15]

History

During the Baptist State Convention of 1833 at Cartledge Creek Baptist Church in Rockingham, North Carolina, establishment of Wake Forest Institute was ratified.[16] The school was founded after the North Carolina Baptist State Convention purchased a 615-acre (2.49 km2) plantation from Calvin Jones in an area north of Raleigh (Wake County) called the "Forest of Wake". The new school, designed to teach both Baptist ministers and laymen, opened on February 3, 1834, as the Wake Forest Manual Labor Institute. Students and staff were required to spend half of each day doing manual labor on its plantation. Samuel Wait, a Baptist minister, was selected as the principal, later president, of the institute.[17]

Wake Forest College

In 1838, the school was renamed Wake Forest College, and the manual labor system was abandoned. The town that grew up around the college came to be called the town of Wake Forest. In 1862, during the American Civil War, the school closed due to the loss of most students and some faculty to service in the Confederate States Army.[citation needed] The college re-opened in 1866 and prospered over the next four decades under the leadership of presidents Washington Manly Wingate, Thomas H. Pritchard, and Charles Taylor. In 1894, the School of Law was established, followed by the School of Medicine in 1902. In 1911 Louise Heims Beck became the university's first librarian, later going on to become a vaudeville performer and the recipient of a Tony Award.[18][19] The university held its first summer session in 1921. Lea Laboratory was built in 1887–1888, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.[20]

The leading college figure in the early 20th century was William L. Poteat, a gifted biologist and the first layman to be elected president in the college's history.[21] "Dr. Billy" continued to promote growth, hired many outstanding professors, and expanded the science curriculum. He also stirred upheaval among North Carolina Baptists with his strong support of teaching the theory of evolution but eventually won formal support from the Baptist State Convention for academic freedom at the college.

Move to Winston-Salem

 
The Benson University Center

The School of Medicine moved to Winston-Salem (then North Carolina's second-largest city) in 1941 under the supervision of Dean Coy Cornelius Carpenter, who guided the school through the transition from a two-year to a four-year program. The school then became the Bowman Gray School of Medicine. The following year, 1942, Wake Forest admitted its first female undergraduate students, after World War II dramatically depleted the pool of male students.[citation needed]

In 1946, as a result of large gifts from the Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation, the entire college agreed to move to Winston-Salem, a move that was completed for the beginning of the fall 1956 term, under the leadership of Harold W. Tribble. Charles and Mary Reynolds Babcock (daughter of R. J. Reynolds) donated to the college about 350 acres (1.4 km2) of fields and woods at "Reynolda", their estate.[22] From 1952 to 1956, fourteen new buildings were constructed on the new campus.[23] These buildings were constructed in Georgian style.[23] The old campus in Wake Forest was sold to the Baptist State Convention to establish the Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary.

Desegregation

On April 27, 1962, Wake Forest's board of trustees voted to accept Edward Reynolds, a native of the African nation of Ghana, as the first black full-time undergraduate at the school. This made Wake Forest the first major private university in the South to desegregate.[24] Reynolds, a transfer student from Shaw University, later became the first black graduate of the university in 1964, when he earned a bachelor's degree in history. Later, he went on to earn masters' degrees at Ohio University and Yale Divinity School, and a PhD in African history from the University of London in 1972.[25] He became a professor of history at the University of California, San Diego, and author of several history books.[26][27]

Recent history

A graduate studies program was inaugurated in 1961, and in 1967 the school became the fully accredited Wake Forest University. The Babcock Graduate School of Management, now known as the School of Business, was established in 1969. The James R. Scales Fine Arts Center opened in 1979.

In 1979, Wake Forest began a process to change its relationship with the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, in order to obtain more academic freedom and choose non-Baptist trustees.[28] In 1986, Wake Forest gained autonomy from the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina and established a fraternal relationship with it.[29][30]

The Middleton House and its surrounding 5 acres (2.0 ha) was deeded by gift to Wake Forest by Philip Hanes and his wife Charlotte in 1992.[31] The donation was completed in 2011.[32]

The thirteenth president of Wake Forest is Nathan O. Hatch, former provost at the University of Notre Dame.[33] Hatch was officially installed as president on October 20, 2005. He assumed office on July 1, 2005, succeeding Thomas K. Hearn Jr., who had retired after 22 years in office. In 2020, Hatch would announce his retirement as president of Wake Forest.[34] On January 29, 2021, the Wake Forest University Board of Trustees named Susan Rae Wente as the university's 14th president and first female president of Wake Forest, replacing outgoing president Nathan Hatch.[35]

On September 16, 2015, Wake Forest announced plans to offer undergraduate classes downtown in Innovation Quarter in Winston-Salem. On March 18, 2016, Wake Forest announced programs in biomedical sciences and engineering at its new Wake Downtown campus, opening in January 2017. Wake Downtown is in a former R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company plant, next to the second campus of the school of medicine which opened in July 2016.[36][37][38][39]

On February 21, 2020, Wake Forest would apologize for the institution's role in profiting and benefiting from enslaved people during slavery.[40]

Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center and Atrium Health announced a partnership in 2019 with the goal of a Charlotte, North Carolina campus for the Wake Forest School of Medicine. More specific details were revealed in February 2021 including a seven-story tower, and on March 24, 2021, Atrium Health announced a 20-acre site at Baxter and McDowell Streets. Also, School of Medicine dean Dr. Julie Ann Freischlag said construction would start in 2022 with the first students attending in 2024. Hatch, who was leaving as president June 30, said Wake Forest would have a School of Professional Studies at the Charlotte location in 2022.[41]

Presidential activities

On March 17, 1978, President Jimmy Carter made a major National Security address in Wait Chapel.[42] The school has hosted presidential debates on two occasions. The first was between then-Vice President George H. W. Bush and Governor Michael Dukakis on September 25, 1988. The second matched then-Governor George W. Bush against Vice President Al Gore on October 11, 2000. Both debates were hosted in Wait Chapel.

Undergraduate admission to Wake Forest is rated as "most selective" by U.S. News & World Report.[45]

Admission statistics for the class of 2021 are as follows: 13,000 applications were received. Representing 55 percent of the incoming class of 1350 freshmen, 750 members of the new class were enrolled through the early decision process – a 15 percent rise in applications than the previous year. Acceptance to Wake Forest has been offered to 25 percent of those who applied through the regular decision process. 54 percent of the class is composed of women. 34 percent are students of color. 22 percent come from North Carolina while 7 percent are international applicants. In order, the top eight states represented in the admitted class are North Carolina, Florida, New Jersey, Georgia, New York, California, and Virginia (with at least one person admitted from each of the fifty states). Students residing in 48 countries have been offered admission. 61 percent of admitted applicants who attend schools that calculate class rank are in the top 5 percent of their class, with 87 percent within the top 10 percent.[46]

Test-optional policy

In May 2008, Wake Forest made college entrance exams optional for undergraduate admissions,[47] becoming the first national university ranked in the top 30 by the U.S. News & World Report to adopt a test-optional policy.[48] Being test-optional means Wake Forest's admissions process does not require applicants to submit their SAT or ACT scores, and students can decide if they want their standardized test scores to be considered.

Academics

Wake Forest alumni include 15 Rhodes Scholars,[10] including 13 since 1986,[11] four Marshall Scholars,[12] 15 Truman Scholars[13] and 62 Fulbright recipients since 1993.[14] According to the National Science Foundation, Wake Forest spent $191 million on research and development in 2018, ranking it 117th in the nation.[49]

Undergraduate

Wake Forest offers 40 undergraduate majors[50] and 57 interdisciplinary minors[50] across various fields of study. Students initially declare a major the second semester of their sophomore year.[51]

In order to graduate, a Wake Forest student must finish three requirements for 120 hours of credit: a core set of classes, a course of study related to a major, and electives. The core set of classes includes basic requirements (a first-year seminar, a writing seminar, health and PE classes, and foreign language literature) and divisional requirements (at least two classes in each of the humanities, social sciences and math/natural sciences and at least one in the fine arts and literatures).[52]

Wake Forest also offers an "Open Curriculum" option, in which a small number of students, approved by a committee, may design a course of study with an adviser that follows a liberal arts framework but does not necessarily fulfill all the core degree requirements.[53]

In order to attend the School of Business, students must make a special application to its program, which offers an accountancy program whereby a student earns a BS and an MS in Accountancy and qualifies to sit for the CPA exam after five years of combined undergraduate and graduate study.[54] The School of Business also offers undergraduate programs leading to degrees in business and enterprise management, finance and mathematical business.[55]

Wake Forest supports a number of centers and institutes, which are designed to encourage interdisciplinary curriculum and programming. Currently, there are three institutes (Humanities, Pro Humanitate, and Eudaimonia) and eleven centers (including Nanotechnology and Molecular Materials; Enterprise Research and Education; Translational Science; Bioethics, Health and Society; BB&T Center for the Study of Capitalism; Energy, Environment and Sustainability; Molecular Communication and Signaling; and Interdisciplinary Performance and the Liberal Arts).[56]

Faculty

Including the professional schools, the university has 1,996 faculty members, of whom 84.5 percent are full-time employees.[57]

Ninety-three percent of undergraduate faculty have doctorates or other terminal degrees in their field.[58] Wake Forest ranked tied for 10th best undergraduate teaching in the U.S. by U.S. News & World Report in its 2016 report,[59] and the school maintains a faculty-to-student ratio of 1 to 11.[60]

Notable faculty include:

Study abroad

According to the Institute of International Education's 2012 Open Doors Report,[69] Wake Forest ranked third in the country for undergraduate participation in study-abroad programs among doctoral research universities. According to the IIE's methodology, 72 percent of Wake Forest undergraduates received credit for studying abroad in the 2010–2011 academic year, with students spending anywhere from a few weeks to a summer to a full academic year visiting countries around the world. In January 2013, the university received the IIE's Heiskell Award for Study Abroad[70] for its emphasis on providing foreign-based educational opportunities to first-generation college students.

Wake Forest offers more than 400 semester-, summer- and year-long study abroad programs in 200 cities in more than 70 countries worldwide through Wake Forest-sponsored programs and through Affiliate programs (approved non-Wake Forest programs).

Fraternities and sororities

With 25 chapters, fraternity and sorority membership consists of around 45 percent of the undergraduate student population.[118] Wake Forest requires that all new members of fraternities and sororities complete at least one semester of full-time studies, so the primary recruiting time is during the spring semester.

Most fraternities and sororities have lounges in campus residence halls, with surrounding rooms being reserved for the chapter. One fraternity, Delta Kappa Epsilon, has a residence off campus.[119]

All fraternities and sororities at Wake Forest belong to one of three councils – the Interfraternity Council, the National Pan-Hellenic Council and the Panhellenic Council.[120] Each of these councils has an executive board that provides resources and programming to its member organizations.

Fraternities on campus: Alpha Epsilon Pi,[121] Alpha Phi Alpha,[122] Alpha Sigma Phi,[123] Chi Psi,[124] Kappa Alpha Order,[125] Kappa Alpha Psi,[126] Lambda Chi Alpha,[127] Omega Psi Phi,[128] Pi Kappa Alpha,[129] Sigma Alpha Epsilon,[130] Sigma Chi,[131] Sigma Pi,[132] and Theta Chi.[133]

Sororities on campus: Alpha Delta Pi,[134] Alpha Kappa Alpha,[135] Chi Omega,[136] Delta Delta Delta,[137] Delta Sigma Theta,[138] Delta Xi Phi,[139] Delta Zeta,[140] Kappa Alpha Theta,[141] Kappa Beta Gamma,[142] Kappa Delta,[143] and Kappa Kappa Gamma.[144]

Wake Forest is also home to the Sigma Delta chapter of Order of Omega, an honor society for members of Greek organizations. Members are selected from the top three percent of Greeks on campus based on high standards in the areas of scholarship, leadership, and involvement within their respective organization and within the fraternity/sorority, campus and local communities.[148]

In the mid-2010s, fraternities at Wake Forest began to come under more public scrutiny for claims of sexual assault, racism, and violence.[149][150][151]

Athletic activities

Wake Forest offers classes in yoga, Pilates, High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), Zumba, BodyPump, and indoor cycling.[152] Wake Forest students field 36 club sport teams that compete against other colleges and universities at the regional and national level.[153] Over half of the student body participates in 18 different intramural sports.[154] The university's fitness and recreation center, Reynolds Gym, is the oldest gym in the ACC. It was renovated in March 2018 and renamed the Wake Forest Wellbeing Center.[155] The project includes the addition of the Sutton Center which opened in January 2016.[156]

Dining facilities

Wake Forest undergraduate students living on campus are required to sign up for a meal plan in coordination with the Office of Residence Life and Housing and Aramark.[157] Several dining rooms, a food court, bar and grill, Starbucks, and convenience stores are available.[158][159][160][161][162]

Student media

  • WAKE Radio was founded by a student group in 1985 after WFDD terminated a long-standing position of student broadcast assistants.[163][164] The organization currently maintains an Internet radio station that broadcasts shows ranging from political and sports talk to indie music.
  • The Student was founded in 2004 and is a website created and run by students to help integrate the student body with academic activities and social events around campus and the Winston-Salem area.[165]
  • The Old Gold & Black (OGB) is Wake Forest University's weekly school newspaper. The paper takes its name from the university's official colors. It was established in 1916 and has been produced by a group of student editors, reporters and photographers every year since then. Notable alumni include Al Hunt, current managing editor for Bloomberg News in Washington DC, W. J. Cash who authored The Mind of the South, and Wayne King who won a Pulitzer Prize for his coverage of The 12th Street Riot in Detroit in 1967.[166]
  • Wake Forest Review is an independent student newspaper providing news and commentary "from a libertarian and conservative perspective."[167]
  • Wake TV is the university television channel. It features weekly television content like Wake TV News and Entertainment Wakely. Past students have also collaborated with ESPNU to create media packages featuring Wake Forest athletes.
  • The Howler is the annual yearbook.
  • 3 to 4 Ounces is the official literary magazine on campus, publishing a collection of student prose, poetry and art through a blind application process each semester. It is also the longest-running media outlet on campus, as it began in 1882 as The Student when the school was still known as Wake Forest College.[165]

Undergraduate student housing

Students are guaranteed housing for four years. As of 2010, students were required to live on campus for their first three years as a full-time enrolled student.[168]

The three main community areas for the 2013–2014 academic year are:[169]

  • South Campus (First Year Student Housing): Babcock Hall, Bostwick Hall, Johnson Hall, Luter Hall, Collins Hall, South Hall, Angelou Hall[170]
  • Quad Area (Upperclass Student Housing): Kitchin Hall, Davis Hall, Poteat/Huffman Halls, Taylor/Efird Halls
  • North Area (Upperclass Student Housing): Magnolia Hall, Dogwood Hall, Polo Hall, Martin Hall, Palmer Hall, Piccolo Hall, North Campus Apartments, Student Apartments, Polo Road houses area.

Student Union

The event-planning arm of Wake Forest is undergraduate student-run organization known as Student Union. Student Union events include Homecoming, Family Weekend, Special Lectures, Concerts, the Coffeehouse music series and other weekly events such as movie screenings and Tuesday Trivia nights. Its signature event is the annual "Shag on the Mag" where a big tent covers Manchester Quad (formerly the Magnolia Quad) during Springfest and students shag dance to a live band. It started in 2005 under then Springfest chairman Joseph Bumgarner.[171]

Student government

Founded in 1923, Wake Forest Student Government (known as SG) works under a semi-Presidential system. Four executive officers (Student Body President, Speaker of the House, Secretary and Treasurer) are elected each spring. The President appoints a Chief of Staff. The Executive Officers coordinate with the Cabinet, formed by the Co-Chairs of the seven standing committees. The seven committees are Academic, Campus Life, Diversity & Inclusion, Judiciary, Public Relations, Physical Planning, and The Student Organizations Council (SOC). The executive committee and Cabinet work with members of the Senate to pass legislation and advocate on behalf of students.[172]

The Senate, which acts as a student legislature, is made up of about 60 senators, chosen in fall and spring elections each year. The legislators are assigned to one of seven committees focused on an area of student needs. The student trustee is an ex-officio member of Student Government and acts as a liaison between the board of trustees and Student Government.

Personal and career development

In 2009, President Nathan Hatch outlined in his strategic plan a campus culture in which personal and career development would become an integral component of the undergraduate student experience.[173] Later that year, he created a cabinet-level position and appointed Andy Chan as the vice president for personal and career development.[174]

Chan's work has included hosting a national conference in 2012 ("Rethinking Success: From the Liberal Arts to Careers in the 21st Century")[175] featuring Condoleezza Rice,[176] and issuing "A Roadmap for Transforming the College-To-Career Experience" in 2013.[177] Wake Forest quadrupled the size of the staff,[178] integrated personal and career development into freshman orientation, and added "College to Career" courses.[179]

Arts

Every student takes at least one course in the arts (art history, studio art, theatre, dance, music performance and music in liberal arts) before graduating.[180] In 2011–2012, more than 500 Wake Forest students were directly involved in performances on campus, and 110 public exhibitions in theatre, music dance and visual arts held in Scales Fine Arts Center in 2012–2013.[181] The university's home, Winston-Salem, calls itself the "City of Arts & Innovation".[182]

Students also can take advantage of a number of other art-related opportunities:

  • The WFU Art Collections consist of nine independent collections with more than 1,600 works located in 35 on- and off-campus locations.[183] Every four years, selected students make an art-buying trip to New York City to add to the collections.[184]
  • Students are within walking distance of the Reynolda House Museum of American Art, the Wake Forest Museum of Anthropology, the Charlotte and Philip Hanes Art Gallery and START, the student art gallery.
  • The Theatre Department, which allows students to participate from their first year, supports interdisciplinary exploration of its plays through the Interdisciplinary Performance and the Liberal Arts Center (IPLACe), which connects the performing arts and other academic departments.[185]
  • The student-run Reynolda Film Festival is a free weeklong series of film screenings and workshops featuring a keynote address by a well-known and respected representative of the film industry.[186]
  • The Secrest Artists Series offers the Wake Forest community several free opportunities each year to hear world-class concerts.[187]

Wake Forest University mascot Demon Deacon

Originally, Wake Forest's athletic teams were known as The Old Gold and Black or the Baptists, due to its association with the Baptist Convention (from which it later separated itself). However, in 1923, after a particularly impressive win against the Duke Blue Devils, a newspaper reporter wrote that the Deacons "fought like Demons", giving rise to the current team name, the "Demon Deacons".[189]

Wake Forest's Athletic teams has won a total of nine NCAA team national championships in five different sports. The women's field hockey team has won three (2002, 2003, 2004), the men's golf team has won three (1974, 1975, 1986), the men's soccer team (2007), the baseball team (1955), and men's tennis (2018) have won one each. Wake Forest is sometimes referred to as being a part of "Tobacco Road" or "The Big Four", terms that refer to the four North Carolina schools that compete heatedly against each other within the ACC; these include Duke, North Carolina, and North Carolina State, as well as Wake Forest.

The Wake Forest Demon Deacons participate in the NCAA's Division I (in the Bowl Subdivision for football) and in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Men's sports include baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, soccer, tennis, and track & field; women's sports include basketball, cross country, field hockey, golf, soccer, tennis, track & field, and volleyball.[190]

Women's basketball

Main article: Wake Forest Demon Deacons women's basketball

In 2012, Jen Hoover took over as coach from Mike Petersen, the program's all-time winningest coach.[194] Hoover (then Jenny Mitchell) is the program's all-time leading scorer and rebounder, was a three-time All-ACC selection and was a member of the ACC's 50th Anniversary Team in 2002. Hoover was part of the program's only NCAA tournament appearance in 1988, when Wake Forest beat Villanova and lost to Tennessee. Wake Forest has appeared in the Women's NIT four times, all under Petersen. In 2015, Dearica Hamby was drafted 6th overall in the WNBA draft by the San Antonio Stars (now Las Vegas Aces).[195]

Women's field hockey

Recent athletic honors include three consecutive NCAA Field Hockey national championships in 2002, 2003, and 2004 under Head Coach Jennifer Averill. In 2005, the Deacs were defeated in the semifinal round by Duke University, and in the 2006 championship game by the University of Maryland.

Main article: Wake Forest Demon Deacons baseball

Wake Forest won the 1955 College World Series in baseball. In 2009, the team began playing at David F. Couch Ballpark, in Winston-Salem, NC, moving to this field from their former home at Gene Hooks Stadium on campus. In 2017, eight players were selected in the 2017 MLB Draft, the most in the Wake Forest Baseball history.[198]

Tennis

Noah Rubin played for Wake Forest; he had won the 2014 boys singles championship at Wimbledon, and the US 2014 boys' national championships in singles and doubles. In 2014–2015 for Wake Forest he was an All-American and the runner-up in the 2015 NCAA singles championship.

On May 22, 2018, the Wake Forest Men's Tennis team won its first ever NCAA National Championship. This feat was accomplished on their home courts, as they defeated the Ohio State Men's Tennis team 4–2. Wake Forest had been ranked as the number one team for most of the season leading up to the tournament.

Screamin' Demons

Student attendance of Wake Forest Football and Basketball games is high, in part due to the program known as "Screamin' Demons". At the beginning of each respective athletic season students on the Reynolda Campus can sign up for the program whereby they pay $40 for each year; in addition to the best seats at the games, this gets students a football shirt in the fall and a tie-dye T-shirt in the spring along with a card that serves as an automatic pass to the sporting events. They lose this privilege if they miss two of the games. Through the planning of Sports Marketing and the Screamin' Demons program, basketball game seats in the students section are difficult to attain without participating in the Screamin' Demons program. The arena can seat only 2,250 of the 4,500 undergraduate students at Wake Forest. At least 150 seats are always set aside for non-Screamin Demons, who sit behind the 2,100 member group.[199]

Student organizations

There are over 225 chartered student organizations of all sorts. Student sports organizations are highly visible on campus. Special interest organizations range from the academic, such the Model United Nations team, to the artistic, such as the handbell choir. In spring of 2006, the Mock Trial team was notable in qualifying for the national tournament while only in its 2nd year in operation. Religious organizations are also numerous. Both the College Republicans and College Democrats have active chapters at the university. Historic student organizations such as the Philomathesians, an artistic literary magazine, are also present. Students are entertained by numerous performing groups, including The Lilting Banshees Comedy Troupe, The Living Parables Christian Drama Troupe, and The Anthony Aston Players.

The Office of Student Engagement, oversees all student organizations and fraternities and sororities. Student Engagement also organizes leadership oriented student activities such as CHARGE (Formerly called LEAD), a semester long course in campus leadership.[200]

Debate team

The Wake Forest Debate team has won the National Debate Tournament in 1997[201] and 2008,[202] made the finals in 2006[203] and 2009[204] and has had six semifinal teams: 1955,[205] 1993, 1994, 1995, 2017 and 2019.[206] Wake Forest has had two winners of the "National Coach of the Year" award: Ross Smith (1997) and Al Louden (1988). The award is named for Smith.[207]

Notable Debate alumni include: Daveed Gartenstein-Ross, the director of the Center for the Study of Terrorist Radicalization at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies; Larry Penley, the former president of Colorado State University; John Graham, the former regulatory czar for George W. Bush; and Franklin Shirley and Martha Swain Wood, both former mayors of Winston-Salem, N.C.

In 2010, Wake Forest became the first top-tier debate team in the country to go "open source" and share all its evidence and arguments online through a wiki accessible to other debaters.[208]

Volunteer Service Corps

The Volunteer Service Corps (VSC) is one of the most popular student organizations. It coordinates volunteering in both the local and international/national setting via service projects and trips. The organization has annual service trips to Russia, Vietnam, and Latin America. In light of the disaster caused by Hurricane Katrina, VSC sent 30 Wake Students on a Wake Alternative Spring Break in the Spring of 2006.[209]

Army ROTC

Wake Forest University offers an Army ROTC program. In 2006 the Army ROTC program was awarded the MacArthur Award by the United States Army for having the best medium-sized ROTC battalion in the nation. There are about sixty cadets in the program, and about half of each military science class finishes Leadership Development Advanced Camp (LDAC) as a "Distinguished Military Graduate", the top 20 percent of ROTC graduates.

The minimum service commitment of a contracted cadet who graduates from ROTC is four years active duty and four years of inactive reserve duty after that. Alternatively, a cadet can choose to forgo active duty service and serve eight straight years in the active Reserve or National Guard. Other alternative service plans are available for those who intend to be an army doctor, lawyer, or chaplain with source of commissioning via ROTC.

At Wake Forest contracted ROTC cadets are given full scholarship, a monthly stipend, and book money by the US Army. The university extends the scholarship with free room and board.[210]

The program also serves students from Winston-Salem State University and Salem College.

Diversity and inclusion

On April 27, 1962, the board of trustees voted to end racial segregation at Wake Forest, which became the South's first major private university to integrate. In the fall of 1962, Ghana native Ed Reynolds became the first full-time black undergraduate student to enroll.[211] In 2012–2013, Wake Forest's celebration, "Faces of Courage", marked the 50th anniversary of Wake Forest's decision to integrate and how it shaped the university.[212]

Wake Forest's undergraduate minority enrollment in 2014–2015 was 25 percent.[213] The university has an official "Statement of Principle on Diversity".[214]

  • Martin Luther King Jr. spoke in Wait Chapel on the Wake Forest campus on October 11, 1962.[217]
  • Herman Eure (biology) and Dolly McPherson (English) became the first black tenure-track professors in 1974.[218]
  • The Office of Minority Affairs was formed in 1978 and later became the Office of Multicultural Affairs. Wake Forest also added an Office of Diversity & Inclusion, an LGBTQ Center,[219] and a Women's Center.[220]
  • In 1982, poet/actress/author Maya Angelou was hired as Reynolds Professor of American Studies.[221]
  • In 2002, Wake Forest added a cultural diversity requirement[222] to its curriculum, mandating all undergraduates take one of 74 courses to educate them on cultural diversity.
  • Wake Forest appointed its first (part-time) Muslim chaplain in 2010.[223] In 2011, the first associate chaplain for Jewish Life was named.[224]

Recognition

Wake Forest's Associate Provost for Diversity and Inclusion Barbee Oakes was named one of the "25 Women Making a Difference" in 2012 Diverse Issues in Higher Education, recognizing her for commitment to initiatives that promote pluralism and foster community.[225] Wake Forest was among 40 schools across the country awarded the 2012 Higher Education Excellence in Diversity Award by Insight into Diversity magazine.[226]

Technology

Wake Forest has received praise for its efforts in the field of technology. In 2003, The Princeton Review listed it as the number-two "Most Connected Campus" in the United States.[227] The university's Information Systems (IS) department offers a program that issues new Lenovo ThinkPad laptop computers to all undergraduate students and faculty. High speed wireless (and wired) Internet access is provided across campus.

Campus-wide access is provided for a variety of collaborative tools, including WebEx, Google Apps for Higher Education (used for WFU email, calendaring and documents) and Sakai.

school designed to teach both Baptist ministers and laymen opened on February 3 1834 as the Wake Forest Manual Labor Institute Students and staff were required to spend half of each day doing manual labor on its plantation Samuel Wait a Baptist minister was selected as the principal later president of the institute 17 Wake Forest College Edit Wait Chapel located on the Hearn Plaza or the Upper Quad In 1838 the school was renamed Wake Forest College and the manual labor system was abandoned The town that grew up around the college came to be called the town of Wake Forest In 1862 during the
