There are a lot of undergraduate students who apply and get the NSF scholarship. Sure, it’s prestigious, and I know many of my peers who applied and didn’t get it (most of whom are from Wake, ironically), but to point out one graduate student’s achievement to justify Wake Forest’s educational excellence is a little misguided in my opinion.

Also, you don’t have to come up with the graduate student’s achievement to boast the undergraduate physics department. Not that the graduate school is great at what it’s doing: if you ask any Wake’s physics student, in fact, not many would consider Wake’s graduate school worth attending coming from an undergraduate institution of this caliber.
