Upcoming Events

Oct 20

New York - Book Club with Author, Emily Goodson

5:30 P.M. - 7:00 P.M.

We are celebrating and featuring fellow alumnae, wellbeing speaker, and Manhattan resident Emily Goodson (’07) and her incredible new book, Dating Disability: 15 Stories of Dealing with the BS and Building Confidence. After a childhood brain injury resulted in a physical disability, Emily spent years learning how to build confidence and self-acceptance. She beautifully chronicles this journey through the lens of dating in her new book, which has taken the literary world by storm since its release. Alumni are encouraged to attend one or both sessions as their schedules permit, which Emily will be personally facilitating. If possible, please do read or listen to Dating Disability prior to attending. The book is available in multiple formats across different retailers and libraries.

Oct 22

Atlanta - WAKE NOW Luncheon

11:30 A.M. - 1:30 P.M.

The conversation begins with a simple question: Tell us about a time someone showed you Pro Humanitate before you had a word for it. Join fellow Atlanta Wake Forest alumnae for a luncheon designed around conversation, connection, and the stories that have shaped us. Around small tables, we’ll reflect on the people and moments that have shown us what it means to live Pro Humanitate—and how, as Wake Forest women, that spirit continues to show up in the ways we lead, care for, mentor, and make a difference in the lives around us. We’ll share good food, thoughtful questions, and the opportunity to listen, connect, and discover something new about one another.
