Despite numerous run-ins with cars over the years, Pat Roberts still has a passion for running and cycling.

Tom Roberts served in the Peace Corps in Ecuador years ago, and he’s spent time in the Amazon jungle.

Boys being boys, they’ll dare each other on a whim to do wild and crazy stuff. Which explains why Larry West has enjoyed a long and venerable career as a college German professor.
That career, spent almost entirely at Wake Forest, drew to a close this spring with his retirement from the Department of German and Russian. Behind him, the 68-year-old West leaves a redoubtable legacy as a teacher, scholar and study-abroad administrator, along with a cadre of devoted colleagues and former students who have been inspired by his dedication and regaled by his wit.Categories: Arts & Culture, Research & Discovery
