- To explore earlier institutional efforts to advance diversity and inclusion, we invite you to review our “Community in Progress” timeline spanning 2015-2017, which was the work of the Campus Climate Implementation Team. This effort continued during the 2017-2018 academic year, as Wake Forest’s year-long focus called “Rethinking Community” invited understanding and grappling with a more virtual, diverse, polarized and global society through a series of conferences, dialogues, national speakers, performances and more.
