Founders' Day Convocation

The Wake Forest family gathers for Founders’ Day Convocation each February to observe the University’s birthday in February of 1834. Please join us in honoring Trustees Lawrence D. "Larry" Hopkins ('72, MD '77) and W. Lou Bissette, Jr. ('65) as this year's Medallion of Merit recipients. The Medallion of Merit is the highest honor given by Wake Forest and is presented annually for oustanding achievement and distinguished contribution to the University. The program will include remarks by University President Dr. Nathan Hatch, a student oration, musical performances and a keynote address by Dr. Jonathan L. Walton, Dean of the School of Divinity.

Reception to follow in the Green Room of Reynolda Hall, presented by the Provost's Office.
