Our hearts are still full as we enter this week energized and inspired by last Friday`s Arts, Health Care & Humanities in Action Symposium, made possible through the collaborative efforts of Wake the Arts, Wake Forest Humanities Institute, Wake`s Translational Science Center and the Center for Bioethics, Health, & Society, @generationscenterws, @srservicesinc, and @artscouncilwsfc.
🧠🕺 The field of Neuroarts is changing the way we think about that which makes us human, and there is room for everyone in this collective effort. We found the event quite moving, as you can see in the image of Reynolds Professor of Dance Christina Soriano doing what she does so well!

The Office of the Provost hosted a Fall Coffee last week to connect with our affiliated offices. On a cool morning, our staff and guests enjoyed breakfast bites, warm drinks, and great company. The perfect start to this new season! 🍂
The Office of the Provost came together today in honor of World Mental Health Day.
In support of the campus-wide We Are Wake initiative ( @wfucampuslife ), our goal is to help elevate our collective conscious of care on campus. Aligning with our motto, Pro Humanitate, the office is here for our students, staff, faculty, and all who make up our Wake Forest community. 💚

✨ We celebrate Dr. Ana S. Iltis, Carlson Professor of University Studies and Director of the Center for Bioethics, Health & Society, for receiving the 2025 Distinguished Service Award from the American Society for Bioethics + Humanities. This honor recognizes her visionary leadership, influential scholarship, and dedication to advancing bioethics. We are proud to recognize her as a leader, scholar, and mentor at @wfuniversity!
New Faculty Orientation is one of our favorite days of the year as we welcome our newest cohort of amazing teacher-scholars to @wfuniversity. One of the highlights of the day is a conversation with all 6 of our incredible Deans. This year, @wakediv Dean Corey D. B. Walker closed us out with a moving and inspiring message about beginning anew, expanding our intellectual horizons, and our commitment to #prohumanitate.
Join us in extending a warm Deacon welcome to our new interim provost Nell Jessup Newton! We look forward to partnering with her this year to continue supporting Wake Forest’s academic mission and to shine a light on the creative, collaborative work of our faculty and students driving positive change in society.
