Pro Humanitate (for humanity) invites us to use our ideas, knowledge, talents and compassion on behalf of humanity in all its difference and diversity.
Our Winston-Salem, N.C., campus houses an academic community of almost 9,000 students, with more studying at Wake Forest locations in Charlotte, Washington, D.C., and around the world. Our undergraduate liberal arts curriculum inspires a holistic approach to preparing graduate and professional school students. We graduate leaders with integrity and courage who use their success to make an impact on society.
The three-day event, uniquely blending gaming, music, and academic inquiry, will feature Emmy Award-winning video game music composer Inon Zur, former Bethesda Softworks executive Pete Hines (’91, P ’25), and retired NASA astronaut Dan Tani. Through workshops, a panel discussion, and an Esports LAN tournament, the community will explore gaming's cultural and creative impact.
Claudia Vega, a Fellow at Wake Forest’s Sabin Family Center for Environment and Sustainability, has been selected as a 2025 TED Fellow for her groundbreaking work on the environmental and human health impacts of mercury pollution from illegal gold mining in the Amazon.
Richard Upchurch (’96) makes wooden sound toys and eccentric instruments to inspire four-year-olds and rock stars alike, and he has fun doing it.

A night of heart, honesty and humanity.
At @facetofacewfu, John Legend shared how faith, family and fearless self-belief shaped his journey. In conversation with Segun Oduolowu, he reflected on the power of authenticity in art, the importance of grace in justice and what it means to live #ProHumanitate for the good of others.
@wfuchoirs opened the program with a beautiful rendition of “All of Me.” 🎶

From Madrid to the Magnolia Quad, Carolina Lopez-Chacarra found more than a major at Wake Forest. She found a family. Whether on the golf course or in the classroom, she’s learned the power of positivity, self-love and chasing big dreams. Next stop: the LPGA. ⛳️
