Скачать или смотреть The Essence of Wake Forest

A film, "The Essence of Wake Forest," marries Dr. Edwin G. Wilson's eloquent description of the character of Wake Forest with scenes from the old and new campuses. The film was produced this summer by award-winning cinematographer George Reasner ('90) and students and faculty in the Documentary Film Program (DFP). "Dr. Wilson is a treasure and everyone should be able to hear him," says Mary Dalton ('83), associate professor of communication and co-director of the DFP. "It was also a way for the Documentary Film Program to do something for the campus that has embraced us, and at the same time provide training for our students." Wilson originally delivered "The Essence of Wake Forest" to trustees and others attending the University's Summer Leadership Conference in July 2010. Remarks adapted from that speech are reprinted below.
