Wake Forest offers students the opportunity to discover not only who they are, but also who they can become. Through lessons learned in classrooms and labs, but also from the world around them, WFU students are challenged intellectually and spiritually to become better students, and to become better persons. Wake Forest is best described as a small school with the academic resources of a large school. It is recognized for outstanding teacher-scholars for whom teaching and research are priorities; libraries with comprehensive collections of print and electronic material; technology that includes a laptop computer for every student; and an intimate educational environment of small classes and teacher-student interaction. A leader among American educational institutions, WFU has annually received recog- nition from U.S. News & World Report as one of the top schools in the nation. Barron’s Guide to the Most Competitive Schools has also ranked Wake Forest among the nation’s best public and private universities in the South. Wake Forest has an undergraduate enrollment of approximately 4,000. It is one of just a few remaining private schools to offer a need-blind admissions program, in which qualified students are accepted without regard to their financial need. A caring community, big-time athletic programs, and supportive alumni networks contribute to its reputation as one of the finest schools in the country. Steeped in rich history and tradition, WFU was founded in 1834 in the town of Wake Forest, North Carolina, and relocated seventy-five miles west to Winston-Salem, North Carolina, in 1956. The picturesque Reynolda Campus, or main campus, is home to the Undergraduate College, the Calloway School of Business and Accountancy, the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, the School of Law, the Babcock Graduate School of Management and the Divinity School. The Bowman Gray Campus is home to the WFU School of Medicine. While much of their learning takes place on campus, many students make the world their classroom; about 50 percent of students have studied abroad by the time they graduate. Many study at the University’s international residential centers: Flow House in Vienna, Casa Artom in Venice, and Worrell House in London. Others participate in programs in Africa, Mexico, Cuba, Japan, Russia, Spain and France. This past spring, Wake Forest was selected as one of eight Kauffman Campuses by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation and will receive a $2.16 million grant to further entrepreneurship on campus. The grant, which will be matched by University fundraising, will allow WFU to become a model for incorporating entrepreneurship into a liberal arts campus. The five-year plan for the grant includes establishing an office of entrepreneurship and liberal arts, adding new entrepreneurship courses and faculty, creating a university Center for Entrepreneurship, and developing a fifth-year entrepreneurship institute for recent university graduates pursuing new ventures. Wake Forest also dedicated the F.M. Kirby Wing of the Calloway Center for Business, Mathematics and Computer Science. The three-story project is named after the F.M. Kirby Foundation, which donated $5 million for the addition. It includes classroom and office space, and breakout space for group meetings, as well as an entrepreneurial incu- bator -- a special center designed for entrepreneurial business study. Construction continues on an educational wing for Reynolda House, Museum of American Art, which became formally affiliated with WFU in 2002. Reynolda House was originally built as the early 20th century home of R. J. Reynolds, founder of R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, and his wife, Katharine Smith Reynolds. It is now home to a collec- tion of American art dating from the mid-18th century that includes works by many of the nation’s most distinguished artists, such as Albert Bierstadt, Mary Cassatt, Frederic E. Church, John Singleton Copley, Stuart Davis, Georgia O’Keeffe, Jacob Lawrence, Gilbert Stuart and Grant Wood. Throughout its 170-year history, Wake Forest has honored its promise of giving the opportunity for a private education to those qualified individuals who might not have the financial resources. The Campaign for WFU: Honoring the Promise began in April 2001 with a goal of $450 million; the goal was increased in the spring of 2002 to $600 million, with $400 million projected for the Reynolda campus and $200 million for the Bowman Gray campus. The campaign, which concludes in 2006, seeks to build an endowment, relative to the scope of the University and its offerings, which will assure Wake Forest’s competitiveness to attract eager and talented students and to hire and retain the excel- lent faculty who teach them. Thanks to the generosity and leadership of Wake Foresters across the country, nearly 250 scholarships, programs, and professorships have been created or augmented since the campaign’s inception. From academic challenge to social development and spiritual growth, Wake Forest University offers an unparalleled college experience. Students find outstanding educational programs, the finest teacher-scholars, sophisticated computing and networking technology, intimate class settings, a strong sense of community and a competitive athletic program. They leave Wake Forest with an ethically informed education that has pre- pared them not only for a career, but also for a life in service to humanity. ports Medicine, which cares for all Demon Deacon student-athletes in the prevention, treatment and Srehabilitation of injuries, is recognized as one of the most comprehensive and qualified in the country. A primary reason why Wake Forest is so highly respected in this critical area is that since 1979 the Sports Medicine program has been closely associated with the Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center. As a result, all injured athletes receive immediate atten- tion from physicians with the highest credentials. Heading this group is Dr. David Martin, a nationally recognized orthopedic surgeon, who is in his second year as the Director of Sports Medicine for the athletic department. On campus, the Department of Sports Medicine is administered on a daily basis by Assistant Athletic Director/Sports Medicine Greg Collins. Collins, who came to Wake Forest in January of 1997 after serving five years as head trainer at the University of Richmond, is enthusi- astic about his position and the outstanding work being provided by his staff. “Wake Forest is recognized nationally for its excel- lence in sports medicine care and has a tremendous history for advancements in the area of athletic health care,” Collins says. “One of the greatest advantages we offer our student-athletes is that in the event of an injury, they can be seen at a well-renowned school of medicine by a physi- cian without delay.
