Welcome, Wake Forest History Alumni!

We hope you will find these pages useful as a way of letting us know what you are up to and keeping up with each other's news. Soon you will be able to look up old friends through the alphabetical alumni directory; discover what your old classmates are doing in the alumni news, arranged by year of graduation; and find out what to read in alumni publications. Before we can publish these, however, we need to know what you are up to. Please use the form on the left to tell us your news.

We also hope that you will participate in our alumni career network. If you are willing to be contacted by current Wake Forest history students for advice and/or are able to arrange internships, again please let us know through the "Tell us your news!" form.

The end of World War II was soon followed by the beginning of the civil rights movement in the United States, which would come to a head in the 1960s, with a sit-in protest in Greensboro, NC, in 1960, the march on Washington of 1963, and the voting rights act of 1965.
