Welcome to “Show Humanitate,” a transformative initiative at Wake Forest University that embodies our motto, Pro Humanitate. It’s not just about individual acts of service or leading with character; it’s about cultivating a way of life that reflects your genuine care for our community. This initiative sets a high standard for the words and actions you choose, grounding your efforts in the deeper motivations that drive you. It’s a commitment to the values that will guide you long after you leave the Forest.
Embrace “Show Humanitate”, a message from Dr. Shea Kidd Brown

A one-of-a-kind piece for the first to ever do it. The latest portrait from our partnership collection with Kyan Patel honors Misty Copeland — the first Black woman to become a principal dancer at the American Ballet Theatre (ABT), now an author, founder, philanthropist and this year’s Commencement speaker.
This one’s for mom and Nya.
When he’s back in Chicago, Bennett Pascal will be taking a piece of Wake Forest with him. Well, two pieces to be exact.
In an ode to graduation and the last four years, the senior artist shares his Wake Forest experience through art — pieces he’ll debut this summer at his first solo gallery show in his hometown, bridging the city that raised him with the place that shaped him.
Part send-off to #WFU26, part welcome letter to #WFU30 and part tribute to @wfualumni, “My Name Is” and “Bow On It” capture the beginning and ending chapters of the student experience. This one’s for the Deacs.
