For most high school students, learning happens one individual discipline at a time. But in the world outside the classroom, finding solutions to challenges requires looking across disciplines. Wake Forest is starting a summer residential program this year to help high school juniors and seniors learn that the biggest challenges in the world can only be solved by studying a variety of perspectives.

In the spirit of Pro Humanitate, a group of students have created a Wake Forest chapter of Building Tomorrow. The international non-profit organization raises money to build elementary schools in Uganda, where only 50 percent of the population completes primary school.

Opportunities for students interested in film direction and production have grown at Wake Forest, both in and out of the classroom. WAKE TV, the student-run campus television station, has filmed nine sports segments for ESPN-U, which have aired during basketball games this year and on ESPNU.com.
